On June 9 and 10
the public will be able to examine and try out the Alfa 147
Murphy&Nye, the new version that has resulted from
collaboration between Alfa Romeo and the company famous for
its brand of nautical clothing and sportswear designed for
the racing world. The Alfa 147 re-trimmed by Murphy&Nye was
first shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2005 as
a concept, but it is now destined to enter production.
Powered by the
sparkling 120 bhp 1.9 JTDM, the car has exclusive Light blue
Crystal bodywork, 17” alloys and a chrome-plated exhaust
terminal. The grille, whiskers and wing mirrors all have the
same satin-effect finish, while the Murphy&Nye logo, a name
of great distinction in the yachting world, decorates the
pillar and rear end.
Inside, the
sporty effect is even more refined, underlined by an
original leitmotiv that links the car world to the world of
yachts. The result is a blue and cream colour combination
that lightens the interior, sporty leather seats with blue
side strips and a cream seat, and the Alfa logo embroidered
in red on the head restraints. The red coulisse on the
gaiters of the gear lever and hand brake knobs and on the
document pockets of the seats gives an extra touch of
refinement. The kick-panels decorated with the M&N logo and
the rope and frogging pattern on the mats underline the bond
between this 147 and the sailing world. There is a generous
range of M&N accessories that includes a large bag, a
key-ring and a document folder with the company logo.

Standard equipment on the Alfa 147 Murphy&Nye also includes foglights, dual zone automatic climate control, Cruise
Control, a trip computer, VDC, ASR, 6 airbags and a radio
complete with CD player and 6 speakers.
Available with a
5-door body and a list price of ¤ 24.690 on the road, the
Alfa 147 Murphy&Nye perfectly embodies the values shared by
the two companies: a passion for racing, for a challenge and
for freedom. Alfa Romeo models have always combined unique,
typically Italian style, with a high technological content,
at the top of their class for performance and capable of
guaranteeing strong emotions, an exciting drive and total
safety. Murphy&Nye similarly boasts a long tradition in the
yachting world. Its years of experience began with sail
production before they moved on to the creation of technical
clothing designed and made for the racing world, constantly
experimenting with new hi-tech fabrics.
The elegant,
sophisticated Alfa 147 Murphy&Nye is metropolitan and
sporty, dedicated to people who like to live on the move,
and who demand beauty combined with practicality and
convenience. The worlds of the car and of the yacht meet on
board the Alfa 147 with an unprecedented appeal. The launch
of the new Murphy&Nye version will be preceded by a special
initiative on the http://www.alfa147game.it/ site from June
3.
