One of the great icons of the Italian coupé
The Alfa Romeo 1750 Bertone belongs to that very special category of cars whose design seems to have stood the test of time without really ageing.
Elegant, compact and sporty without being over the top, it perfectly embodies the essence of the Italian coupé of the 1960s and 1970s: a car capable of combining a refined body with a powertrain full of character.
The features available perfectly sum up what still makes it so appealing today: its styling, its engine and its sound have made it a true motoring legend.
The Bertone signature
The nickname ‘Bertone’, by which these Alfa Romeos are commonly known today, refers directly to the design of their bodywork. The result is a particularly well-balanced coupé: a low, elongated bonnet, a sleek roofline, generous glazing and a short rear end.
Nothing seems superfluous.
It is precisely this simplicity that largely explains why this generation of Alfa Romeo remains so highly prized by collectors. It possesses an instantly recognisable elegance, without the need for aesthetic artifice.
The Alfa Romeo character
The appeal of a Bertone, however, is not limited to its bodywork.
The Alfa Romeo of this era is also a car designed around driving pleasure, with a powertrain whose character plays a full part in the experience.
The available features emphasise precisely the combination of styling, engine performance and engine sound – three elements inextricably linked to the model’s reputation.
It is this combination that ensures the Bertone remains a particularly sought-after car today: it is elegant enough to take its place in a collection, yet also has a genuine vocation for the open road.
The car on offer
This car dates from 1970 and has 02 862 km on the odometer.
In the absence of a complete mileage history, this figure must naturally be regarded as an odometer reading and not as the vehicle’s certified total mileage. The car underwent a paint restoration some time ago. Its appeal also lies in the fact that its interior is described as original, whilst its mechanical components are stated to have been well maintained.
This combination of a revitalised exterior and the preservation of the original interior is a fascinating aspect of this car’s history.
A car built for the road
Unlike some classic cars whose appeal is essentially static, the Bertone retains a genuine road-going character. Its compact size, mechanical nature and architecture make it a car that can be enjoyed just as much at a classic car meet as on a winding road.
It is precisely this versatility that explains enthusiasts’ attachment to the model: a Bertone is a pleasure to look at, but above all it is built to be driven.
A heritage and sporting heritage
This example is listed as eligible for the Tour Auto Optic 2000 and Le Mans Classic.
Before registering for either of these events, the vehicle’s actual eligibility must be confirmed with the organiser in accordance with the regulations in force.
This in no way detracts from the model’s appeal: Alfa Romeos of this generation hold an important place in the world of historic racing and events.
Condition and presentation
The details provided paint a rather favourable picture of this car.
The paintwork has been restored, the mechanical components are reported to have been well maintained, and the interior is described as original.
The roadworthiness test is pending.
A key lot in the sale
With an estimate of €35,000 to €40,000, this Alfa Romeo is clearly one of the standout cars in the sale.
Above all, it boasts several additional selling points: an iconic model, a particularly sought-after design, an interior described as original, a restored paintwork and a well-maintained mechanical setup.
It is a car that will appeal to both Italian car enthusiasts and collectors seeking an iconic European coupé from this era.
Key points
This 1970 Alfa Romeo 1750 Bertone embodies much of what makes classic Italian cars so charming.
A silhouette that has become timeless, a characterful engine and a design focused on driving pleasure.
The car on offer also features a restored paintwork, an interior described as original, and a well-maintained engine.
More than just a classic car, the Bertone is today one of those models capable of single-handedly representing an entire era of Italian motoring: elegant, sporty and deeply endearing.
