Giulietta : Romeo’s Juliet. The name evokes the romance of Italy, the carefree feel of the1960s and mediterranean sun.

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta was a masterpiece of its type, with an outstanding, excitable engine housed in a light, elegant and sporty body.

Upon testing an Alfa Romeo Spider, Autocar magazine wrote that “there is no more desirable small sports car; it sets standards of performance, handling, and refinement that very few others can match.”

With the introduction of the Giulietta in 1954, Alfa Romeo established the ‘small car, big performance’ formula which would characterise the Milanese marque’s finest offerings from then on.

The original 750-Series 1.3-litre Giulietta Sprint Coupé of 1954 was soon joined by Berlina and Spider versions.

The Giulietta Spider was introduced in October 1955. The Spider is a convertible based on the Giulietta Sprint, but has a shorter wheelbase.

It was designed and built by Pinin Farina. The Spider proved that the Giulietta running gear was perfectly suited for sports cars.

The Giulietta model’s success surprised even Alfa Romeo themselves as production targets were moved upwards. The combination of a rev-happy engine, fine handling, responsive chassis, and excellent brakes made the Giulietta a driver’s car par excellence and explains why these stylish spiders continue to attract discerning enthusiasts.

Over its nine-year production run, a little more than 14,000 units of this durable little convertible were delivered.

In recent years, Giuliettas, especially the Spiders, are gaining recognition as a good value in the collector’s market, and prices have been rising steadily, following the course of that other post-war small-displacement favorite, the Porsche 356.
