As if its elegant dynamics and sophisticated driving experience weren’t enough reasons to purchase Alfa Romeo’s Alfa Spider, the veteran Italian manufacturer gives motoring enthusiasts even more with a new feature-packed Limited Edition model that retails for the same price as the original at £25,500 (or slightly above US$50,000).

Extras in this Europe-only release include heated seats wrapped in Italian Frau leather, Alfa Romeo’s proprietary Blue&Me™ hands-free system with voice recognition and media player, bold 19-inch alloy rims, and a choice of four color combinations.

Like its regular cousin, engine power remains the same, with a reasonably impressive 0 – 62mph (0–100 km/h) time of 8.8 seconds, and a top speed of 139 mph (or more than 220 km/h).
