Re: Servicing an old Alfa ?

Thanks for the comments! I'm equally as happy we made it too as I sacrificed the european breakdown cover for beer/ campsite money

Re: Servicing an old Alfa ?

Way braver than me - I suppose at 22 you could push it a long way !
Too many horror stories of £400 charges off french motorways for me to take that risk!
