by David G. Styles, ed. Crowood Autoclassics, The Crowwod Press Ltd 1992,
ISBN 1 85223 636 1.
In these pages, you can find a test and a lot on Sprint history and its morphing from the mid 70's to the late 80's. Very nice one (and the only one).
I tried really hard to find 80's publications
aout Sprint models. I assure you it wasn't easy, especially when Alfa Romeo
doesn't give enough daat on this car and doesn't llow publications on these
models (that's what everybody tells me).
So, after a lot of searching I came up with an
archive of magazines with tests or review on Alfa Romeo Sprints (past ald
later models).
Look on the list below and get the info that
you want.
If anyone knows another magazine or book with
Sprint themes, please e-mail,
telling me so.
Unfortunately, the only books you can find reffering to Sprint models, are:
1. "ALFA ROMEO, Spider, Alfasud &
Alfetta GT, The Complete Story",
by David G. Styles, ed. Crowood Autoclassics,
The Crowwod Press Ltd 1992,
ISBN 1 85223 636 1.
In these pages, you can find a test and a lot on Sprint history
and its morphing from the mid 70's to the late 80's. Very nice one (and
the only one).
2. "ALFA ROMEO Alfasud /Sprint,
1974 to 1988 - 1186cc/1286cc/1350cc/1490cc"

This book is ONLY for restoring and maintenancing your Sprint. It's
very helpfull, has a lot of pictures, written in simple language, and you
don't have to be a mechanic to understand it and 'perform' the acts described
on its pages. VERY HELPFULL for those who want to take care ot their Sprints
on their own!
3. Tutte le Auto Del Mondo (TAM), Quattroruote,
1984.
It's an Italian annualy published catalogue-book
with data on ANY car in the world (covering the Special editions from country
to country). Covers technical specifications, photo, price, etc. I don't
know if you can find this book anywhere.
