ARRANGEMENTS FOR DEALING WITH THE CAR AT THE END
OF ITS LIFE
For years, Alfa Romeo has pursued a global commitment to protect and respect the environment by continually improving its
production processes and developing increasingly eco-compatible products. To ensure its customers the best possible service
in compliance with environment standards and in response to obligations arising out of European Directive 2000/53/EC on
end of life vehicles, Alfa Romeo offers its customers the chance to hand back their vehicles (*) at the end of their life cycle
at no additional cost.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over the last keeper or owner should not incur any expens-
es as a result of it having a zero or negative market value. In all European Union countries, unt
il 1st January 2007, only
vehicles registered after 1st July 2002 were collected free of charge, while since 2007 collection has been free of charge ir-
respective of the year of registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and body-
work) and has no additional waste.
To hand back your car at the end of its life without additional cost, you may contact one of our dealers or one of the collec-
tion and demolition centres authorised by Alfa Romeo. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service
for the collection, treatment and recycling of unused vehicles with respect to the environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an Alfa Romeo Authorized Services or
by calli
ng the freephone number 00800 2532 0000 or on the Alfa Romeo website.
