11-year history of Alfa Romeo 33 issue is divided into three phases: from the start of production until the first restyling in 1986, and later from now until 1990 and from 1990 to 1994. The most basic advantage of third-generation cars - they are almost free from problems of corrosion of the body, almost all the exciting Alfa Romeo 33 80s. Moreover, the rust problem in this case is quite acute. It called several reasons of low reliability of body elements. One of them was the fact that Alfa Romeo 33 builded in the south of Italy in Arco Pomilano. The southern areas at the time were much poorer than the north, where labor cost was cheaper,and the build quality was poorer. Still ,very often one can hear that to reduce cost of production Alfa Romeo 33 in the first years Italians have purchased the lowest quality alloy from Soviet Union. It is not quite so - iron was supplied from socialist Poland. And, surprisingly , rust often occurs in the back of the "thirty-third". Costs very carefully examine not only very feeble main place (sills, wheel arches, etc.), And the shock absorber mounting racks on both the front and rear. And if on the body have different plastic lining, it must be remembered that under them likes to accumulate dirt, and such places - the usual hotbed of corrosion. So the "leaky" Alfa Romeo 33 are quite common. The only way - to save the car body often make anti-corrosion treatment.
Build Quality Alfa Romeo 33 throughout its life was not the best. In the 80 years almost all buyers noticed a rather large gap between the plastic panels. Moreover, various mounting wore out quickly, and within a few years after the start of operation, even when driving on European roads heard various creaking and cracking. There were claims electric windows, lamps, panels, devices and so forth. As for sold at the moment on the secondary car market, if in the cabin and there are some flaws, then they do not pay special attention.
