I've asked myself the same thing.  This guy has a number of cars listed on car sales.  Thought about giving him a call to ask about the maroon car (notice the lemon spider in the background of the main photo).

Rob, I had a look at these cars with a mate of mine who was looking to buy one (subsequently has).

He is in Tullamarine before the airport, and has more - a sort of back yard dealer. The cars presented superficaially OK, but you would need to check them out properly - preferably on a hoist.

We felt that at the asking price, we could probably do better elsewhere, which is what happened.

I think fortunately for those that love 105 series Alfas, they present as very good buying. When compared to some other cars of the same era they are exceptionally good value!
I wonder when the Australian market will start to acknowledge just how great these cars are?  ???
As it stands, you could but a very nice step nose as a garage princess + a cracking 1750GTV for some regular driving + a spider for those warm summer nights or sunny winter-springs days and have not only a garage be full of iconic Italian beauties but you'll have some change left in your pocket because you didn't but that overweight GT Falcon or GTS Monaro !
