OK, so I've just clocked up 2,000 miles on the new GTA SW after the trip to Spring Alfa Day, and all I can say is wow! I've been checking the oil every week as advised, but use has been minimal. The engine is a dream and will crise in top gear from round town to motorway driving, but drop a couple of gears and put your foot down and .....!

Only little glitch seems to be the radio, which turns itself on every now and then, sometimes I unlock the car and open the door to be greeted by Radio 1! Have I just not mastered the radio settings yet or is it just being Italian?

PS Nice to see so many GTA's at Spring Alfa Day. Didn't get to meet any owners though due to the rain...
