Alfa Romeo Montreal
1972 Alfa Romeo Montreal
Classic Car Hire from Bygone Classics
Penned by Marcello Gandini the Alfa Montreal remains a stunning design even 55 years after its first public display. What the public must have made of it in 1967 must have been mind blowing.
Compare the exterior and interior design of the Montreal to what most of what our parents were driving then, and it is jaw dropping. Gandini’s designs are the stuff of legend; he designed what remains to many, the most beautiful car ever made; the Lamborghini Miura. Our Montreal is a 1972 model finished in stunning Sunburst orange complimented with a black interior. She is simply beautiful and a complete head turner. Being a period Grand Tourer, she has more than adequate power on delivery from the silky V8 however the essence of the Montreal is in the cruise. It’s in the cruise that you can absorb just what a wonderful machine they are; cosseted in a wonderful cabin with expansive views to the front and side.
Montreal's were designed to sit low to the ground, something not overly evident when looking at pictures but more than apparent when you’re standing next to one.
