The paintwork shows some signs of wear, and the rubber trim and chrome are largely original. There are some small rust spots visible in the wheel wells. The lighting functions properly. Distinctive yellow lighting is mounted on the front: mandatory in France at the time and often optional in other countries. All in all, it has a fresh appearance and is in very original condition, especially considering the car’s age.INTERIORThe black faux leather interior is also in a very original condition. As a result, there are some signs of wear, such as slight tearing in the passenger seat. The interior features attractive gauges and a wooden dashboard.

The car starts, drives, and shifts well. The engine is a 4-cylinder-in-line with 1570 cm³, 8 valves, and 2 Weber carburetors. It delivers 102 hp at 5500 rpm and a torque of 142 Nm at 2900–3000 rpm. The car can still keep up well in today’s traffic and has a top speed of 175 km/h. Original disc brakes have been installed all around.GENERALThe Alfa Romeo Giulia is a model name that Alfa Romeo has used at various times for three not directly related series. The best known is the first generation (Type 105), a sporty four-door sedan built between 1962 and 1978. Later, the name was also used for modified versions of the Giulietta models, and reintroduced in 2015 for a modern sedan. The original Giulia was unique because it combined a relatively powerful engine with a lightweight body weighing approximately 1,000 kg. It featured an advanced four-cylinder engine with dual overhead camshafts, available in 1.3- and 1.6-liter variants. Thanks to this technology, the Giulia was known for its lively handling and strong performance for its class. The 1.6-liter “Super” version, for example, reached a top speed of approximately 170 km/h and accelerated to 100 km/h in about 12 seconds—impressive for its time.Although the design was quite angular and simple, it proved to be surprisingly aerodynamic. Wind tunnel tests helped achieve low drag, which contributed to the car’s performance and efficiency. In 1974, the Giulia Super series was re-released as the Alfa Romeo Giulia Nuova Super, including the 1300 and 1600 versions. These models received a refreshed look, featuring a black plastic grille and a flat trunk lid without the characteristic center line. Production of this series ran until 1977 and was succeeded by the Giulietta.**Alfa Romeo Giulia Nuova Super 1600 (1978)**• Originally delivered in the Netherlands• Original service booklet present• Alloy GTA Veloce Style 15" wheels• Attractive yellow Carello headlights• 1600 engine with 102 hp• 5-speed manual transmission• Highly original condition• Valid MOT until June 2027---### **HISTORY / DOCUMENTATION**This beautiful Alfa Romeo was delivered new by Albatros Automobiel Amsterdam on May 3, 1978.
