That's a heck of a far away place. Wonder how the dealer network is in Tahiti.

Re: i got the Alfa wave!!

Nothing. Nada. Zip.

Seems that the Alfa drivers (of any variety and vintage) round here haven't cottoned on yet. Somebody please wave back - the missus already doubts my sanity.

I usually do to most Alfas.

I followed a nice 33 Permanent 4 most of the way to work the other day. J467 HOU - anyone here? I remember it as my P4 was J480 HOU - one of a bunch pre registered by Alfa. Sorry part of this tail was that I was on my bike so I'd have looked a prat waving!

Re: i got the Alfa wave!!

While queueing on the A31 near Ringwood last night, a young boy and his mum put their thumbs up... they were in a people carrier tho so doesn't really count :-(

Waved at a few 147 but got nout back as usual.

Re: i got the Alfa wave!!

I waved at a GTV this afternoon to let him thru' but he just blanked me. People round here are so f***ing rude no matter what they drive.
