alfa romeo giulietta RS

and then there where two

i have just bought another 155, same colour (champagne) the old one is a 1.8 8 valve widebody, new one is 2.0 16 valve widebody it drives very well no rattles
no knocks no bangs, its been lowered, engine pulls well its smooth, thats where it ends.

the old one is rev happy feels strong, feels more intouch with the road, steering is weighted
it makes you feel like going for a blast, it does not feel any slower low down up to say 70 mph, the only reason i bough the new car was beacuse i like the old one so much, this one was newer better condition lower miles bigger engine,

WHY ARE THE TWO SO DIFFERENT ??

I have changed the black wheels to the new one.

Because the engines are totally different and the 1.8 8v probably doesn't have the quickrack on it!
