I am considering buying a Barchetta, I haven't driven one yet, but can anyone tell if they scuttle shake/Flex. My dads Alfa Spider suffered a bit from this.
Thanks.
Hi. I test drove a '55 Reg Alfa Spider (2.2 JTS) and found it suffered from more scuttle and shake than the Barchetta. In my opinion, the Barchetta (I have a '53 Reg) has a better balance between engine, chassis and transmission then the Spider. I would certainly suggest a test drive. The two cars have a very different feel - I didn't enjoy the drive as much in the Spider even if I appreciated it for the more upmarket feel. The Barchetta, although not very fast is great for throwing into corners!
