Used Alfa Romeo Giulia for sale in Europe

About the Alfa Romeo Giulia

The Giulia name has been used on two rear-wheel-drive saloons from Alfa Romeo, built decades apart. The first appeared in 1962 and ran to 1978. The second arrived in 2015 and is still on sale. Our listings include both, so check the production year before comparing cars.

The modern Giulia is a four-door saloon for drivers who want a sporty feel in an executive-sized car. Engines are a 2.2 diesel, a 2.0 turbo petrol and, in the Quadrifoglio, a 2.9 V6 turbo petrol. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and Q4 all-wheel drive was offered on selected versions. An eight-speed automatic is common.

The 1960s and 1970s Giulia is a classic compact saloon with a twin-cam four-cylinder engine, mostly 1.3 or 1.6 litres. It suits enthusiasts who accept the upkeep of an older car. Condition, originality and history matter more than mileage.

Generations

• Giulia Type 105 (1962-1978) — A compact rear-wheel-drive saloon with twin-cam four-cylinder engines, sold in several versions over its long run.
• Giulia Type 952 (2015-present) — A rear-wheel-drive saloon with petrol and diesel engines, an eight-speed automatic and optional Q4 all-wheel drive on some versions.

Typical prices

Our listings mix two very different cars, so prices spread widely. Among the modern Giulia, the median asking price rises with each model year: €15,000 for 2016, €27,200 for 2020, €37,200 for 2023 and €60,700 for 2026. Spreads within a year can be wide because trim, engine and Quadrifoglio versions are priced differently. Classic cars are priced by condition and originality, and the earliest 1960s cars generally ask more than those from the 1970s. These are asking prices in our listings on 2026-11-10, not a valuation.

What to check when buying a used Alfa Romeo Giulia

Ask for the full service history and see the car cold if you can. Check that the body, engine and electronics match the age and the seller's description. For a classic, a specialist inspection is worth arranging.

• Service and recall history · Type 952

  Ask for dated invoices or stamps showing regular servicing. Ask whether any recall or software update work has been carried out by an authorised workshop. Gaps in the record are worth questioning before you travel.

• Electronics and infotainment · Type 952

  Owners have discussed occasional electronic faults, particularly on early cars. Test the screen, parking sensors, driver aids and every warning light on start-up. If possible, have the car scanned for stored fault codes.

• Exhaust and emissions system · 2.2 diesel

  Check for warning lights and ask how the car has been used. Mainly short journeys can clog the particulate filter. Ask about any work on the filter or EGR valve, and check whether the car uses AdBlue.

• Gearbox behaviour · Eight-speed automatic

  On the test drive, look for smooth changes, no delay when selecting drive, and no harsh shifts at low speed. Ask whether the gearbox fluid has been serviced and when.

• Brakes, tyres and use · Quadrifoglio

  High-performance versions wear brakes and tyres faster. Check disc condition, tyre brand and age, and look for signs of track use. Ask for invoices covering brake work and any accident repairs.

• Rust and past repairs · 1962-1978

  Inspect sills, floors, wheel arches, boot floor, door bottoms and areas around the screens. Look for filler, uneven panel gaps and fresh underseal hiding welds. Ask for photos of any restoration work.

• Engine and gearbox condition · 1962-1978

  Check for oil pressure at idle, noise from the timing chain area, easy cold starting and smoke. Ask for records of valve clearance checks. Test the gearbox for smooth engagement in every gear.
