I've already waited months. The last two weeks are really dragging though.

That exhaust note is so intoxicating isn't it. I just want more! Do you think my warranty will be ok, with modifying the car like this?

P.S Why is my name familiar?...

Why DID alfa make diesels and why DO people buy them? Just to save a few quid a year I suppose. The strangest alfa vehicle must be an estate diesel. Mind you, even Porsche make a truck these days.

Ha Ha - only kidding guys. I can tell this is obviously a bone of contention among some of you. Each to their own and all that.

I've just moved into a new house as it happens and need a lawnmower. Does anyone know if Alfa have a little diesel mower in the accessories catalogue? It would make sense to share power plants afterall.

Tinky Winky, Dipsy, La La and Po make exhausts do they? Do they make a "eh oh" noise wink

How much insurance You're bloody crackers.....but welcome anyway wink

Try esure, but they probably won't like you. I was quoted around £650 on the gas guzzling GTA.
