Re: Does your Alfa make you smile

I generally make an effort to leave mine in the most conspicuous parking space possible, too. It's often a compromise between parking right next to the pay & display machine so everyone sees her, and parking right at the far end of the car park so nobody dings her. A constant struggle!

Yes, definite smile generators!

Great thread. Sometime we need reminding...

Re: Does your Alfa make you smile

yes! my alfa makes me smile when looking from the outside, and grin when inside and i must admit that i do "look back" after ive parked the car

reminds me of a similar story. Alfa got stuck in neutral on a bridge, pushed to the side of the road, called for recovery, had car mounted on truck and as i went by in a taxi im like..."man, my car looks so sexy!".

Re: Does your Alfa make you smile

Every morning I slide into the seat, put the key in the ignition and grip the leather steering wheel. I glance at the three glorious instrument binnacles before me as I turn the key, and listen to the silky smooth Italian roar into life. I slide the shifter into reverse and turn my head to see the beautifully sculpted rear. Lifting the clutch I pull onto the road and begin my journey. Does it make me smile?

Re: Does your Alfa make you smile

Oh yes, she makes me smile, all slinky and black and inviting.

When i leave her parked up, the little voices in my head are telling me to go for a couple more miles... Just a few more... You know you want to.

Can't even go to the shops without blasting down the dual carriageways near our house!
