Editorial note: Published on 31 May 2005, the sale listing entitled “ALFA GT JUNIOR” concerns a ALFA ROMEO car. In the published text, the advertiser writes: “ALFA ROMEO GT JUNIOR 1300 ROSSA ANNO 1971.

ASI, REVISIONE, PELLE NERA, 4FARI, VOLANTE LEGNO ORIGINALE DELL'EPOCA HELLBORE, CERCHI LEGA MEBLER ORIGINALI DELL'EPOCA.”. The available data indicate stated year 1971. The advertiser also claims new or little-used condition, restoration work, originality, particularly favourable condition and certification or recognition; these statements require checks against the item and its records. To interpret the listing “ALFA GT JUNIOR” correctly, the make field associates the listing with ALFA ROMEO, a marque connected with Italy; the exact model must nevertheless be established from the item and its identifiers rather than from the marque name alone. For the listing “ALFA GT JUNIOR”, for a ALFA ROMEO car, the relevant market needs a specific reading. In the historic-car and youngtimer market, exact specification, originality, documented maintenance, bodywork, mechanical condition and interior quality matter more than name recognition. A widely produced version does not become rare through age alone; interest increases when a car retains coherent specification, traceable history and condition that is difficult to reproduce. For this offer, price can only be read together with completeness, condition and comparable evidence; mere market presence does not demonstrate rarity. For the item identified as “ALFA GT JUNIOR”, a concrete assessment requires photographs, chassis number, documents, specification, maintenance, previous work and the actual condition of body, mechanics and interior to be compared. Advertiser statements are the starting point of the listing, not independent verification. Because the listing is archived, availability, price, condition and any intention to sell, buy or exchange describe only the position at the publication date and do not constitute a current valuation. The information has been reconstructed and checked, as far as reasonably possible, using the listing data and historical or technical sources considered reliable. Inaccuracies, omissions or outdated details may nevertheless remain, so identity, specification, originality, condition, availability and value must be verified directly.
