Heavily Crash-Damaged Alfa Giulia QV Being Sold For Ambitious Figure
Does anyone fancy a heavily discounted nearly-new Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglio Verde? There’s one for sale in Belgium with just a few thousand miles on the clock at €30,000 less than the brand new sticker price, but there’s a slight catch.
It looks like this particular bargain has been smashed into something hard. At speed. And it may not have been facing the right way around when it happened.
It’s missing the right rear wheel and rear bumper, the bodywork has taken a hell of a beating and the right-hand rear door is pretty much dead. It looks like major suspension components and chassis mounting points are shafted, too.
On top of that, it looks like at least a couple of the exhaust tips have been bent out of shape and the boot lid no longer fits properly on the right-hand side, but at the very least it looks like none of the airbags have fired.
The dealer claims that the Ferrari co-developed 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 engine is fine, and apparently so is the reversing camera. Well, that’s okay, then…
Looking at the damage it would be logical to assume that this poor Giulia QV, for sale at a dealer a couple of miles outside the town of Kortrijk, had been oversteering at the moment of the crash. It’s also possible that a third-party car has slammed into the rear corner, but we’re willing to bet on the former.
So we ask those of you with serious body shop experience: would you repair this, and even if you could, would you have any change left from the €30,000 saving versus a new one?
We can imagine the wait for replacement parts for these must be excruciatingly long. We think we’d pass on this.

how could they do dis
Bad drivers.
Basically, a 2.9-litre 510 hp Ferrari engine + 3 wheels and a bunch of Giulia spares for sale for €30,000
I would love to see that engine swapped into something else
The car is actually €50,000 if you click on the link. The article was saying it was €30,000 less than a brand new one. At €50k that is a pretty expensive engine and set of 3 wheels
It’s €50,000: the article says it’s €30,000 cheaper than a new car.
Those hexagons above the exhaust though… I’d be tempted to leave those exposed :P.
€30,000 for an engine is quite expensive.
50.000 actually. The car is cheaper with 30k
Ricer be having a field day having wet dreams about how that back end has loads of exhaust.
The only person in the world I think could fix this properly with care would be B is for Build lol
Use duct tape
Ok, so they are asking for €49,973 for a severely damaged vehicle, where exactly the same perfectly intact one with 5km on the clock is currently being sold for €45,988 ? How stupid is that?
Cheapest one I can find is around 70k€.
Car guy so be like “is the badge for sale”?
