Alfa Romeo 8C.
What to Check Before Buying.
The Alfa Romeo 8C is a rare Italian supercar built between 2007 and 2010, with just 500 Competizione coupes and 500 Spider versions produced worldwide. Powered by a 4.7-litre Maserati-derived V8 producing 450bhp, it combines stunning Pininfarina styling with genuine performance credentials. These cars are now collector's pieces, typically owned by enthusiasts and used sparingly, but potential buyers need to understand the specific challenges that come with low-mileage exotic machinery. Pre-purchase inspection is essential given the car's complexity, limited UK service network, and the premium costs associated with any maintenance or repairs.
⚠ Known issue
The 8C's carbon-ceramic brakes can suffer from corrosion and degradation when the car sits unused for extended periods, a common scenario given their collector status. Get the full picture before you buy.
⚠ Common MOT failure
Brake system deterioration including corroded discs and degraded brake lines
The average used car has 3+ known model faults the seller won't mention.
