About the Alfa Romeo Sprint 902
The Alfa Romeo Sprint, originally the Alfasud Sprint, transitioned to its second generation (Type 902) in 1983, adopting the floorpan and mechanicals of the new Alfa 33. While it lost the Alfasud's inboard front disc brakes in favour of wheel-mounted units and rear drums, it retained the sharp, angular lines penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro. The 1.5-litre boxer engine provides a low centre of gravity, contributing to the car's celebrated handling and tactile steering. As a collector car, it is prized for its pure driving dynamics and iconic 1980s Italian aesthetic, though survivors are rare due to notorious corrosion issues.

Alfa Romeo Sprint 902 fun facts
- The Sprint was built at the Pomigliano d'Arco plant in southern Italy, which gave the original 'Alfasud' its name, meaning 'Alfa South'.
- Despite its sporty appearance, the Sprint was never a true hatchback; it featured a fixed rear window and a separate boot lid.
- The 1983 update replaced the chrome bumpers with plastic ones and introduced a new grille to align with the brand's 1980s design language.
