I bought the ugliest Alfa Romeo ever made (and I love it!!)

Despite being criticised for it's looks, the Alfa Romeo 75 was an important car in Alfa's history, as it was the last model released before Alfa Romeo was acquired by FIAT. Produced between 1985 and 1992, the Alfa 75 was commercially successful, with around 386,767 having been built by the end of production in 1992. The car was named the 75 to celebrate Alfa's 75 year of production and was styled by head of Centro Stile Alfa Romeo - Ermanno Cressoni in a radically different wedge shape, compared to the curvy earlier Alfa models such as the 105 series GTV, and the later GTV6, with which the 75 shared some running gear and engines. The 75 featured some innovative technical features, including an advanced for the time, engine management computer and perfect weight distribution, front to back, achieved with a rear transaxle arrangement, combining the gearbox & clutch with the rear differential.

75 is far from ugly. Destined to be a classic. 2.5 Busso sounds glorious

[@TheAlfaNut]

Hi Frank - how are you? Thanks for watching, I'm only teasing to get a reaction from the viewers! Prices for 75's are already very high, especially in Europe, so it seems they are already firmly in the "classic" status!

[@benzinapaul7416]

To add to your description the 75 was essentially a radically facelifted Giulietta, using the same basic drivetrain and chassis architecture and even sharing the doors. Similarly the 90 was also an evolution of the Alfetta with a cosmetic makeover but similar underpinnings. The 75 came alive with the launch of the facelifted models in 1987, the 2.0 Twin Spark and more importantly for export markets the 3.0 V6 America were the game changers.

[@TheAlfaNut]

Thanks for the info - I'm really looking forward to driving the 75, there will be more videos soon.

[@henryhol8538]

Awesome! I remember this car from all the magazines when I was younger and is also the basis of Il Mostro (the SZ). It was, until the current Giulia, the last rear wheel drive Alfa Saloon. All this makes it great. I look forward to seeing it completed.

Excellent analysis regarding beautiful versus "brutalist" designed cars, and I agree with you 100% but maybe it's because I'm over 50.

[@shortsongs9394]

The 75 is undoubtedly screams 1980's. Its size and dimensions made it stand out. That short rear and high wedge design and that interior were odd to me then and still today. The 80's Quattroporte was a handsome brute.

[@Belznis]

I actually had never a chance to see the old ones in my childhood as I was born in 83 and in Latvia, which means it was Soviet Union. The only resemblance we had to an alfa was an old Lada, the designs were copied from fiat and one of the actually looks a bit like old GT. So to me all these old cars still look fantastic, because the cars we grew up did not have all that extra equipment and the looks too. But having seen enough of modern and old cars in the 90s, one of course can develop his own sense of ''style''. Some people dislike Alfa Romeo for the looks, but I love almost all of them, maybe the 147 is the only one that looks a bit weird to me. And these old boxy Alfas like 75 and the like look great with a body kit, but even as they are, they look interesting. Those are classic cars after all. So far I had a 156 and the 2007 GT Q2, but my favorite was the 1998 156 2.0 Twinspark.

[@TheAlfaNut]

Hi Mate, I think if you haven't had access to nice cars when you were growing up, it makes you want them even more! I agree that there is always something to love in the design of an Alfa and I also have a 156 from 1998! Great car.

We had a pair of 75s many years ago - a 2L TS and a 2.5 V6 auto. Both the same colour, same interior and the same bodykit. Could be confusing jumping into the manual after driving the auto. Bodyshell wasn't bad for rust on either. The auto suffered around the windscreen, which I suspect was the result of someone cutting the sealant out to replace it a scraping the metal badly so there was no rust protection. Petrol tanks rusted. Had to replace one on the TS, which was made worse by having the tow bar mount running directly under it. Worth giving an extra few layers of paint and some underseal on the new tank (especially on the seam between the top and bottom). The U shape handbrake was fine, and ironic that it has now been copied on some current car. Road tests complained it didn't have a glove box as they couldn't find it! Still have a few bits for them. Pair of exhaust manifolds, mirror, etc.

Hi mate, thanks for watching. I think perception of the looks of the "Brutalist" era of Alfa design partly depends on age and experience? I didn't like the 75 or the 33 / 155 / SZ when they first came out but now I think they are distinctive and hugely groundbreaking designs. I also have a 156 - sorry! 😉

I'm going to disagree with you on the ugly bit. No way is the 75 an ugly car! 80s/90s boxy shape cars are such a unique piece of art, they have aged beautifully, and it's one of the holy grail in Alfa history, especially for us Italians. What makes this car ever more awesome, It was also know to be a criminal car for bank robbery or just the ultimate bad boy car, it definitely has that ultimate cool car vibe to it. ❤

To me, it lacks the delicacy of style that the old Alfetta GTV exhibited, and always looked a little ungainly around corners, as the taller look emphasized the amount of body roll. That said, in hindsight (I'm a lot older now, obvs), I find I do rather like the 75. It's not pretty or beautiful, but it is a well-proportioned design, while retaining enough style to be distinctive.

The 75 is definitely sub zero retro cool in my opinion. My dad was sales manager dor alfa Ireland in the 70s and early 80s. I grew up in all manner of alfas, from the early 1100 cc alfasuds, the earlier juniors, giulias and guilietas, though the alfettas, 80s giuliettas, the gtfs, the sprints, and then the 33s and of course the 75s, 164s too ...buy àm less fond of the 155 and 166 cars..

I don't consider the 75 that bad and consider the Alfasud more of a joke design (actually having that whif of looking like an Austin Allegro), but being a complete Crosswagon nut I might be a bit off 😉 Aside from the fact that they called the SZ and RZ Zagato models "Il Mostro", I don't think that Alfa truly had an Edsel. There might be the worst of Alfa but to be honest the worst Alfa is miles better than some brands best looking cars. And in your case with a Busso? Come on! 🙂 Question: Since the 156 Crosswagon shares a big amount of plattform with the contemporary 147 and 156 Sportwagon (and there were 3.2l v6 Bussos avaliable with those) I was always wondering if an engine swap of one of those would be possible for Crosswagon. What's your take?
