The Alfa 33 Boxer 16V was introduced into Australia in 1991. ( only 283 ââ¬Åtipoââ¬Â 907510 33 Boxer 16V were ever made between 1990 and 1991)
The 33 is a sporting sedan, its performance and handling giving the high degree of driver satisfaction for which the marque is famous.
In its 16 QV form, the Alfa 33 is powered by a 1.7-litre, twin cam per bank, 16-valve, electronically fuel-injected, flat four engine.The âboxerâ design allows a lower bonnet height and lower centre of gravity for the front-mounted engine, resulting in improved handling. The transmission is five-speed manual, driving the front wheels.
Suspension is conventional front-wheel drive with MacPherson struts at the front and beam axle and trailing arms at the rear.
Alloy wheels are standard, originally fitted with Pirelli high performance tyres.
The steering is rack and pinion with speed sensitive power assistance while the brakes are power-assisted discs at the front and drums at the rear.
Styling of the 33 QV is typically Italian with short, sloping bonnet and high boot line giving a wedge effect, enhanced by the colour coded grille with classic Alfa shield and aerodynamic additions to the front (airdam with light clusters), body sills and boot lid spoiler.
Inside, sports seats give plenty of lateral support and the rear seat backs are split into two assymetrical parts that can be folded down separately or together. Seatbelts are height adjustable.
Standard equipment includes air-conditioning, alloy wheels, central locking, power steering, power windows and radio/cassette.
The Alfa 33QV is a classic sports sedan designed for driving satisfaction, for those who derive pleasure out of exploring the upper limits of performance, it is an exciting car.
