Seems a Q4 badge |

Indeed, but lacks the specific rims.. Anyway 1990+ |

@bux_48: have you ever noticed that every official Alfa Romeo documentation never refers to the Sport Wagon as '33 Sport Wagon', at least for the [907] model? A '33' badge is also absent on the vehicles, differently than on the [905] Shouldn't we list them only as Alfa Romeo Sport Wagon then? (don't know if the topic has been already discussed, anyway) A couple of examples: Link to "www.auto-preisliste.de" https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/U6wAAOxyOeBRywpJ/s-l500.jpg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha1sFIHHaPE -- Last edit: 2023-05-12 15:42:14 |

Glass's lists as 33 Sportwagon (one word) in UK, both before and after March 91 facelift/revamp. |

I see that all the magazines/catalogues list it as 33 indeed, but it doesn't seem to correspond to the official deonomination of Alfa Romeo, who always refers to its simply as 'Sport Wagon' |

I haven't any brochure for the 33 but I know well that 1990+ models have only Sport Wagon badge, and as you said official material (always?) omit the 33 moniker, but in nearly all the magazines and their price lists was called 33 Sport Wagon. I'm not really sure would be useful to take off the 33, even if, following badging and adverts, maybe we should I think I already saw here an old discussion about that, but I can't find the entry.. Also interesting to know that in UK the second series was introduced in March 1991, and I see in the linked German price list that the 1.3 was sold as 1.4 in D (I guess with specific rear script?) |

I'd guess the March 91 intro of 2nd series in UK (also confirmed in another trade guide) marks the start of RHD production for all markets - I can imagine Malta or Cyprus got them for instance, no idea for more distant places such as HK, Aus, NZ or ZA. Previous version (all 33s) discontinued here in Oct 90, but all 33 sales were very low, so maybe they had to allow time for showroom stock to clear. |

Yes, same in Austria, Switzerland and Netherlands Link to "img.kleinanzeigen.de" Same engine configuration as the 1.3, anyway |

Thanks, yes, I saw the configuration was the same, exact displacement of the 1.3 was 1351, so very close |
