The perfect Alfa?

It is fair to say that the Alfaholics activities in the last ten years have made the 105 GT’s so popular that the prices for any 105 Coupe are going through the roof. You can only respect such an achievement for building such a strong brand that Alfaholics is nowadays.

It's fantastic that a company like Alfaholics exists in this day and age. Long may they continue.

I have known the Banks family for a long time, and all I can say is that they are a very special family. Richard started it but the boys did a fantastic job

Wonderful to see a family business grow like this

They just need to hire more people. 7 year wait is nuts

I like the high level of professionalism in this company, impressive cars and parts

That dark turquoise widebody GTA R is my favorite 😍😍😍😍

Totally bitchin'. My dad raced a 1967 GTA Junior 1300 to three western division SCCA Championships. It was prepared by Auto Delta in Italy. It was a beautiful car. The sound of the tuned header coming out beneath the driver door was the meanest thing I'd ever heard. (I was 4, but still)

Guys with heart, soul and passion builds cars that have soul and heart. I don't work there but I'm proud of what they are doing. Well done.

Hello. My name's Lee and I'm an Alfaholic. I'm here not to recover

What a great story. They seemed to be a very humble lads that you can tell are very proud of what they built and are building. Plus those cars are mind blowing. Thumbs up to your family and whole team.

4:12 The truck in the image on the wall is the recap of an era. Just wonderful

Showing his late mother the business as a special wish…tells a lot about Max, and their mother.👍🏽

Thank you for your dedication to Alfa Romeo as a brand, Peter Horne, Alfa Dynamics Squadra Corse, South Africa.

True masterpieces in the true Alfas in GTA and GTAm forms, rebadged R, s, but the ALFA soul is ever present, very, very well finished and beautiful for the Alfisti eyes, thank you Alfaholics, thank you GR&R.

What a great company with two brothers at the helm. Experiencing one of those GTAR's would be a real pleasure.

Great work guys, anyone would be proud of your achievements!

Back in the late 80s I had a 1300, a 1600, a 1750 and a 2000. I liked the 1300 best as it was loudest and without getting pulled all the time for speeding. I couldn't afford them now so I do MX5s instead. Just looked up the specs. Absolutely love every enhancement they've made. Even those spats over the rear wheels look somehow correct, as well as being an improvement. I'll bet 240hp is "just right". Just how much would I need to shell out?

Wonderful cars and a great company to deal with. Their concern to enhance the natural characteristics of the 105, ie rear axle design retention, is particularly noble. Cordon bleu chefs with a deep respect for their ingredients... Chris Harris vid. is a must watch.

I've bought bits for my '69 GTV from Alfaholics. Helpful people. Nice to be able to get stuff for a half-century-old car, immediately and off the shelf.

Somewhat old video, but what a great story. Don't you just love a multi-generational, family owned business that the people love running, developing, improving. I have had a couple of Alfas in my life and still lust for them.

so nice, the respect for his mum

non so se sentirmi offeso come alfista Sardo oppure ammirarli e promuoverli come veri alfisti doc!!..prevale la seconda opzione!!! perchè questi Signori trasformano le nostre alfa meglio di come faceva l'AutoDelta!!in italia si parla tanto di Heritage ma è solo fumo negli occhi!!!!!si è perso il gusto vero dell'auto d'epoca!!!!del vedere ...oltre....come voi! che vi siete creati tutti i ricambi non come qui che sono in mano pochi!!!!!! In italia se per sbaglio vai in giro con i passaruota gtaM e i cerchi da 9 pollici ti portano via il libretto di circolazione dell'auto , la patente ,la casa ,e la moglie!!!!!!!questa'anno ho potuto vedere le vostre auto dal vivo qui in Sardegna!! le vostre auto sono bellissime fuori e altrettanto belle sotto!!! COMPLIMENTISSIMI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!fateci sempre sognare con le vostre creazioni!!

What a great job you have.

Thank you English men... Your passion moves the World (petrol world)

Do you / have you built a spyder to this spec ? Would be amazing

Love these guys!

Dreamcar built by the best Alfa builders period. One can dream!

The white GTC JFL 67D shown in the collection is a pretty rare animal..RHD…I’m pretty sure I remember Richard Banks restoring and owning a GTC in the 80s, but I’m not sure it’s the same car. Interestingly Richard had a red GTA in that era, JFL 24D. It’s shown in the article ‘The restorer speaks out’ from 1985 and available on the Alfaholics website, but DVLA seemingly has no record of that GTA now.

Great video 👏🏻

great video and nice insights

Beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful 😍

Heaven! ❤

Those wheel arches remind me of the 917/20.

A GTV6 must be the next step? Please! Imagine that..

Alfaholics! What a great name.

Great family business, really awesome cars.

Quoting Top Gear that you only become a true petrolhead if you have owned an Alfa Romeo. I am glad that Alfaholics is there and my dream is to one day bring them a GT 1300 Junior and get it tweaked and improved a bit. That would make my absolute dream car

LA PASSIONE E' LA NOSTRA GUIDA.ALFA ROMEO PER SEMPRE,COMPLIMENTI A TUTTI RAGAZZI.

Well done :-)

I remember turning my nose up at a Giulietta in the mid 1980s. It had a dented door and tatty interior, seemed expensive at £300. Oh for a time machine. I have a modern Giulietta as a daily, no, not the same, not the same at all.

Perfection

Love these cars. Just waiting for my win on the lottery...............

Awesome

Works of freak’n art.

Couple of these in my club. Really impressive. We have a guy here in Michigan who does pretty much the same thing as ALFAholics. I had friend that the two of us prepared a 1967 GTV for SCCA racing. that was back in the 70s so they have a lot more development today although may not be legal for the class. I also had a 1969 ALFA spider I bought new and kept for over 40 years with a lot of mods on it from the race car. I only sold it for garage space for my 2015 ALFA 4C LE which is a blast and with a few tweaks is very fast too. If I had the garage space I would still have it plus the 4C.

NOW I start to get it...

I looked at your website and is it true I can buy replacement windshield😂😂😂 oh JOY

I'd love to make my own GTA-R at home.

very cool.......singer for instance does not sell a la carte.......cool

*Fucken badass prestoring yet modifying for straight performance, now that’s special, I feel that the Datsun Z community feels just like this company in terms of how many performance parts are at your fingertips, Atleast for SoCal*

Bravissimi

They just need to hire more people.

7:30 that looks like the Nürburgring ?

imagine how proud dad is......

One day….😢

My favorite Alfas, GTA & GTV, I have an artist's rendering of Horst Kwech's 1971 SCCA 2.5 liter Trans Am Championship GTV on my wall, and a Hot Wheels GTA on the shelf below. Those are the only ones I will be ably to collect, sadly. 😪 At least the Hot Wheels version has the GTA-R Fender flares, and the bumper delete option!

So if i put in an order i have 8 years to save up?? Probably still come up short.

👍🏽

Bellamissio

So cool. I will own one of these one day, oh yes, I will own one.

Now where is the making of Gordon Murray‘s Junior Zagato

2029!!!!!.....wow

Alfaholics is obviously a very different business from the days of R.W.Banks as I think it originally was. I bought a "restored" 1600 Junior from old man Banks back in the late '80's and it was a bit of a lash up! I got about 5 miles after collecting it one evening and it just died! Fortunately I had a mobile phone in those days of Motorola bricks, so was able to get on his case. He came out and towed it back to the workshop and a dead battery was identified, he seemed quite miffed that he had to fit a brand new replacement instead of the obviously aged one that came off! Then a string problems started, huge water leaks around the doors and boot, drive line vibration, bubbling paint, seized cam bearings, lots of worn out rubber bushings etc, etc. Actually, it wasn't a restoration, it was a clean up and respray job, with as little mechanical work as possible. And I had a real battle with the guy over remedial work and cost reimbursement, he was a slippery type. To resolve the cam bearing it needed a replacement head, which he offered to supply and fit if I took the car back to him! As I was over 150 miles away the time and cost was unacceptable and he really didn't want to supply the head for my local specialist to fit and for him to cover that cost. I had to wave small claims court over his head before he conceded and paid up. I had it less than a year before I'd had enough and sold it. It looked smart enough but below skin deep it was a dog. Seems his lads are doing it properly, thankfully. I would love a GTA rep but they are are way beyond my means now.

2029!😮

There is NO new car id prefer over one of these.

im amazed , you never see these in the states.............how nice they could make a go of it as a business

Don't forget your local Parcelforce driver that helped during the early years i.e me

The Italians gave up on Alfa Romeo, that's what happens when an enterprise is strictly for squeezing money out of it, as opposed to doing something out of excellence, pride of workmanship and accomplishment.

alfaholics....singer...eagle..... heAVEN is here.... the top 3 restos....not in that order...lol......some1 should do Z cars.....and 02's......but please under 125k!!!!!!
