Re: Independent garage Recommendations

I dropped my 156 off to Rusper Alfa Romeo this morning to cure my creaking suspension (was brutally bad this weekend in the cold). That place is an Aladdin's cave of Alfa gear - in the garage were a 156 Sportwagon, a 155 Q4, a boat-tailed Spider, a mid 1970's Spider, a Giulia Coupe (LHD) & a Spider (RHD). Awesome place.

I got a 155 2.0 16v as a courtesy car. Nowhere near as fast as my car, but the handling is excellent - still smiling now. This is the 2nd 155 I've had as a courtesy car, and they've both really impressed me. Hmmm... might be a possible candidate for my next project
