Autodelta Spider J6 3.2 C

Mangoletsi and Autodelta are pleased to announce that the 348 bhp Autodelta Spider J6 3.2 C has arrived at Mangoletsi’s Knutsford, Cheshire showroom and is available for viewing and test drives by appointment.

The Autodelta Spider J6 3.2 C received its world première last November and brings the comprehensive bespoke upgrade package first seen on the Autodelta Brera J5 3.2 C to Alfa Romeo’s stylish, award-winning convertible sports car. This fundamental makeover includes the addition of Autodelta's developed supercharger system, which is based around Rotrex's C30-94 unit, widely regarded as the most responsive unit on the market. The unit’s weight advantages, along with the compact dimensions, allow for optimum packaging, and help the Spider J6 3.2 C to achieve impressive performance figures.

From a standard power output of 260 bhp @ 6,300 rpm and maximum torque of 322 Nm @ 4,500 rpm, the Spider J6’s V6 engine to now turns out 348 bhp (an increase of 88 bhp) and 430 Nm of torque (an extra 108 Nm), all delivered in a useable, responsive and smooth manner. The Autodelta Spider J6 3.2 C races from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62.5 mph) in a highly impressive 5.4 seconds (standard model: 7.0 seconds), while it hits a top speed of 260 km/h (161 mph); compared to the standard model’s 239 km/h (149 mph). The new Spider J6 3.2 C is thus without a doubt a model that packs a serious punch in the sports car stakes, and more than overcomes the challenge posed by its established rivals in the market.

Along with the ferocious fire in its belly the Autodelta Spider J6 3.2 C receives major upgrades to the electronics, while the suspension is revised with Autodelta-developed coilovers fitted to improve chassis dynamics, and uprated brakes to stop the package within an improved window.

Mangoletsi is Autodelta's exclusive Official Agent for the North of England, and the dealership, which has just undergone an extensive showroom refit to optimize customer experience, is very pleased to announce that an Autodelta Spider J6 3.2 C, the first of just a handful completed since commercialisation of this model got underway at the beginning of the year, will be on show at its Knutsford, Cheshire showroom.

Craig Aspin, Mangoletsi Senior Sales Specialist & Autodelta representative says: "We're delighted to have the brand-new Autodelta Spider J6 3.2 C available at Mangoletsi. This shows our commitment towards this awesome car and providing the first Alfa Romeo Spider, as part of our ‘Official Car Supplier’ agreement, to be upgraded is a sign of our status. Autodelta’s bespoke sports cars have long been regarded as the ultimate expression of uncompromising Alfa Romeo performance, coupled with everyday practicality, and our customers, who quite simply have an unmatched passion for the Italian brand, have already shown a major interest since we became an Autodelta Official Agent. The car performs as superbly as it appears and I’m quite looking forward to surprising a few of our customers that have never sampled the Autodelta experience before.”

Jano Djelalian, Managing Director, Autodelta says: “We’re pleased that Mangoletsi will be displaying and making available for test drives the Spider J6 3.2 C at their very glamorous new showroom and I’m satisfied that they have been clearly impressed with our latest car. This is part of our new policy of making demonstrators readily available to customers at our Official Agents, which is allowing us to successfully make a wider connection with drivers who haven’t previously considered one of our cars.”
