Introduced in 1970, the second series of Alfa Romeo's iconic Spider Veloce was visually distinguished by a subtly revised grille, more raked windscreen, fashionable cut-off 'Kamm Tail' and new door handles. The second series cars were upgraded to 1962cc during 1971. With a quoted 111bhp at 5000rpm and 122ft-lb of torque at 4000rpm on tap for the USA market on tap and 132bhp elsewhere, the 2000 Spider Veloce was reputedly capable of 110 -120mph dependent on the market country. Great fun to drive, the model evolved through third and fourth series remaining in production until 1993.

Displaying a highly credible c.56,500 miles, this example was imported into the UK in 2021, with the Spider originating in the car friendly climate of the southern US states of Texas and Oklahoma. Upgrades and improvements include a stainless steel exhaust that was carried out in current ownership, renewed electrics, a recent battery, refurbished calipers and re-foaming and reupholstering. A service was carried out at c.54,000 miles. Indeed, paperwork from Texas and Oklahoma shows the mileage rising. In recent ownership, the Spider has been used for a European tour through France, Switzerland, Austria, Germany and finally through to Lake Garda, Italy in 2023. The vendor has just completed a Yorkshire Dales and Moors tour this year. Accompanied by a 4-season weather cover, a history file that includes both import and American export paperwork and a small collection of previous invoices, it is offered with a V5C Registration Document.
