1988 Alfa Romeo Milano Gold

When considering Milanos for purchase, it would be a mistake to consider only the 3.0L Verde, when in reality its performance benefits over the rest of the range are modest. The Silver model is best for those seeking a car with the fewest standard features for a cool spartan feel. The Platinum is the only model aside from the Verde to feature an LSD, but includes the sometimes-problematic ABS system, as well as the leather / suede seats that do not usually age well. If you can live without the LSD, or would be open to swapping in an LSD transaxle yourself, the Gold has the excellent cloth seats and most of the electronic features of a Platinum, but uses a non-ABS braking system, which seems to be more robust.

This Milano Gold features Verde phone dial wheels and an Ansa exhaust, but seems stock otherwise. At just under 50k miles, it is one of the lower mile Milanos we've seen recently, and the asking price reflects that. With proper care, it is possible to preserve the current excellent condition, so we wouldn't worry too much about packing miles onto this one.

The seller claims that timing belt and water pump have been serviced but does not provide a date of when the service was performed. The fuel system was gone through completely, and the brakes were serviced including new pads, rotors, and calipers. Based on this, the car sounds ready to go. The seller mentions that slight adjustments might be required, but that's nothing to worry about with these cars.

We bought our Verde with relatively low miles and we have stayed on top of maintenance. As a result, the ownership experience hasn't been a battle against deferred maintenance. A Milano is the rare sports sedan that makes for an entertaining weekend driver, and the red color here adds to the status as a weekend car. We don't know if the market is ready for $15,000 Milano Golds, but we think the asking price isn't too far off what we would pay for an example this nice.
