First Alfa 8c Competizione Arrives on UK Shores
The very first example out of a total of just 41 Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione supercars destined for the UK market, arrived this week. The ultra-rare, hand-built Italian beauty with its Ferrari derived, 450 Hp 4.7-liter V8 engine was delivered to Ian Simpson, a Manchester-based architect who was lucky enough to spare the £138,500 or $274,400 that Alfa Romeo UK asks for the 8c Competizione. -Continued Ian Simpson, who signed up for the Italian supercar when it was first unveiled as a concept at the 2003 Geneva Show, commented: “This car is truly worth the wait. It’s everything a supercar should be. It’s unmistakably beautiful, it has a distinct engine note and the high performance credentials place it firmly alongside the most exotic cars on the planet. I am delighted and proud to be the first customer in the country to experience this incredible car.â€
