Classic Alfa
News No 1 August 2004
Phew! What a year........it's
been a year now since I resigned from Alfaholics and formed Classic
Alfa and the response has been fantastic. Over 2,500 orders satisfied
in the first 12 months and hundreds of new customers joining the
many I have dealt with for the last 12 years.
The "Cars for Sale" section of the site has proved very
popular with customers being able to advertise their cars for six
months for only £75+vat. Most have sold within the first two
months and we have had roughly a 75% success rate.
I am constantly expanding the range of parts offered to Giulietta
owners and have become one myself with the purchase of a gorgeous
1960 Giulietta Spider Veloce in white with black interior (Day of
the Jackal fans spot me a mile off!). The car was the personal property
of a well known Italian restorer hence the 8 year old restoration
still looking factory fresh!
Simon Whiting of Gran
Turismo and myself have just completed a Bertone GT Buyer's Guide
for the September issue of Classic Cars magazine which is in the
shops now and will provide a useful reference for anyone considering
purchasing one of these fantastic coupes.
International customers
should note that due to the high volume of foreign orders sent throughout
this last year we are now able to offer a fantastic shipping rate
to most countries in the world - a 20lb parcel to the USA for example
now only costs £35. Up to 25kg to France, Germany or Denmark
- £13.65 on a 48hr service! The same parcel to Italy, Spain
or Portugal - £22.
The result of all this activity has been that I need to find someone
to work alongside myself & Fred Baker (who does the packing
& despatch) to help take phone calls, reply to emails, process
orders and even dismantle the odd wreck! We have put an ad on the
site and if you're young & interested please email vacancy@classicalfa.com
Finally, thanks to all of my customers, old & new, who have
been so supportive in this first year of Classic Alfa. Business
has been so strong that we have been able to stock, in our first
year, what I had expected to take at least two years to accomplish.
We are carrying more stock than ever before here in Dulwich and
this means better service to you the customers as we carry virtually
everything in the catalogue in stock ALL the time. A few customers
have been shocked when placing their order on the website at 3 or
4 in the afternoon and receiving the parcel the following morning!
One trade customer, W.A.D. Autodevelopments in Wolverhampton, remarked
"We ordered an exhaust section for a 2001 GTV from our modern
Alfa supplier and a front exhaust section for a 1961 Giulietta Sprint
from Classic Alfa - the 1961 part arrived the next day whilst the
2001 part was on back order from Italy and took over a week to arrive!
