Description
1987 CADILLAC ALLANTE – History: Unveiled for the 1987 model year, the Cadillac Allanté was Cadillac’s answer to prestigious European convertibles such as the Mercedes-Benz SL and the Jaguar XJ-S Cabriolet. Its design was entrusted to the renowned Italian coachbuilder Pininfarina, which assembled the bodywork in Turin before it was flown to Detroit, where the mechanical components were fitted. This remarkable logistical operation, dubbed the “Air Bridge” at the time, made the Allanté one of the most unique cars of its era. Powered by a 4.1-litre V8 engine mated to an automatic gearbox, the Allanté prioritised comfort, luxury and long-distance travel, whilst offering a particularly high standard of equipment for the late 1980s. Produced until 1993 in a run of just over 21,000 units, it remains today a rare and unusual model in the Cadillac range. Description: The car on offer is a Cadillac Allanté first registered on 30 June 1987. The vehicle comes with its complete set of Belgian administrative documents, including the registration certificates (Parts I and II), the Belgian registration certificate of conformity, a roadworthiness certificate, a wheel alignment report and a Car-Pass. The Car-Pass shows a mileage of 170,312 km, recorded on 17 September 2014, confirming the consistency of the known readings. The bodywork appears to be largely complete and has an attractive overall profile. The paintwork has a uniform appearance but shows signs of age, with a slight dullness and some visible wear and tear depending on the panel, including scratches and a few dents. The interior is complete and in a good state of preservation despite having been in long-term storage. The burgundy leather upholstery is slightly dried out with some normal cracking, but no major tears. The dashboard, door panels, centre console and main fittings appear to be complete. The car will essentially require cleaning and cosmetic restoration. The engine bay is complete and retains its Cadillac V8 engine as well as its main original components. The engine bay is dusty with slight surface oxidation due to storage, with no obvious signs of dismantling. No mechanical tests have been carried out and a full restoration to working order will be required before any attempt is made to start the engine.
