production processes and developing increasingly "eco-compatible" products. To grant customers the best possible service in terms
of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, Alfa
Romeo S.p.A. is offering its customers the chance to hand over their car at the end of its life without incurring any additional costs.

result of it having a zero or negative market value.

Alfa Romeo S.p.A.-authorised collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service
for the collection, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
