I had a 1976 as well, in white. Remember well that lovely rasping engine noise and such fantastic precise steering and roadholding.

A car so way ahead of its time that it had inbuilt biodegradability. They should have called it the Alfa Corrosa.

@Alex My 1st car was an Alfa 2000 GTV, which this then stupid 19 yr old kid wrecked after 3 weeks on a dark autumn night in 1978. (Yes, shoot me!) Alfa's are great automobiles, but the Sud was a corrosive disaster, ruining the reputation of this brand in North Western Europe for decades afterwards. Many contemporary Italian and French cars, like the Simca 1308, the Citroen GS and the Lancia Gamma, were nearly just as bad, but the Sud was the undisputed champion rustbucket.

The corrosion problems for the specific model it has an explanation,back in the day before sud produced alfa romeo went in to state controls due to debt problems,and because of big unemployment in southern italy italian goverment decided to built a factory in south(thats why the car called sud it was the alfa of south)but the workers unions in south where stronger and decided a big strike the time of the strike was winter and a huge amount of metallic plates were stocked outside of the factory stay out and rusted,when the factory resumes production the same rusted plates used for the construction of the car

Lo sai perchè arruginiva? Perche nello stabilimento di Pomiliano d'Arco dopo diversi anni di studi dovuto alla corrosione, hanno scoperto che c'era un dipendente che faceva le proprie urine dentro al serbatoio del catalizzatore della vernice.

They were good cars, far better than most other cars their size, but the rust problem was terrible, so bad some cars had to be almost rebuilt at their first MOT. The Sud did receive better rustproofing by the end of the seventies, when better paintwork and steel were introduced, but the car's sales were damaged by the rust issues on early cars.

I had a two door Sud red 1.4 back in the mid 80's i didnt appreciate it at the time - looked like an italian austin allegro - i thought at the time , but really was a great lil car to tear around London in , not fast on moyorways but around town was fun . Swapped it for cash & a mini gt bored out to 1430cc dog box stainless exhaust that thing demolished everything ..up to 70mph anyway, lol , plenty round london tho - wish i had that mini now 😬
