Congrats on your 147 GTA ... it's a brilliant playmate

BTW cruise control wont engage beyond 190 kph

Foxie · 15-03-2006

Hey planky, good choice of colour

If you think you seeing your reflection....that is another grinnin' idiot in a rosso bella bruto.....
It be me, as I'm in Newbury.
So WAVE.......

don't forget to Pin your tag on the frappr map for AO.....

Hi Foxie, i'll keep my eye out for the reflection

- how long have you had yours, don't remember seeing you around and I'm sure i'd have noticed such a fine looking motor!

Got myself pinned to the map, my locations not quite right, seems to think I live in the middle of the old A34, but its close enough! (and I'm there for a split second most mornings!)

Ahh, that explains where I've been going wrong then!!

Although if you've ever been on the M4 in the morning you'll know that gettng over 50mph is wishful thinking!

I waved to a bloke in a proteo red 146 yesterday. He waved back, but you could see by the look on his face he was wonder who the hell was that??!!

ode · 19-03-2006

Yesterday on the road out of Congleton towards Arclid. A blue 147, I did wave too but a smidge late

Foxie · 19-03-2006

Nice new 147 rosso on the M4 between Reading and Newbury.....
Gave us a blip on the main beams, as I cruised (

) passed, yesterday afternoon about 4pm.

I waved back via mirror and flicked the hazards on a few blinks.

So the new skool do wave to each other..........

Lynn GT · 19-03-2006

Woohoo - At last I got the Alfa wave

.

A very nice GT on the A436 between Stow on the Wold and Birdlip, Glos. Not sure if it's anyone on here, but if it is, Hello

baccus999 · 20-03-2006

Saw a another black 156 in Letchworth Herts a couple of days ago, the driver made a point of turning their head to look at me so i waved and got blanked! Gonna give up with the wave!

mr.orange · 25-03-2006

got the alfa wave from a nice 147GTA today...

Bodgit · 13-04-2006

As its a busy weekend I thought that I put this thread back on top.

Right you lot lets agee that if you spot another alfa give them the Alfa : Wave - Nod - Flash what ever ... just do not stick your nose in the air and pretend you have seen each other. I always wave and only once the other day a fellow GTA 156 SW driver smiled back and gave a nod ...felt good you know.

Hope to get a lot of chat with this thread this Bank Holiday if we all just wave.

Cheers.
Bodgit

Gary Slegg · 13-04-2006

In the 13 years since I bought my first Alfa I've never had the Alfa wave, so if anyone is in North Wales and sees either a white Alfa 33, or more likely now a black GTV please say hello

Bodgit · 15-04-2006

Anyone had the alfa wave then?

mr.orange · 15-04-2006

i always give a wave/flash of lights if i see another alfa....i waved at a yello 145 cloverleaf today the driver just looked at me as if to say who the hell are you

i wont let this put me off though

wrinx · 15-04-2006

Had a nod yesterday I think...166 driver.

I always wave, even at 147 drivers....never had a wave back from a woman yet, strange that

Even get waves when I'm in the Matta

..from Landrover drivers

mattireland · 15-04-2006

a gold 146 Ti and a foxy lady in a black 147 (that one got me in trouble because i waved back vigorously and got slapped by the otherhalf!)

i havent even got an alfa now!!

maybe its the friendly face

andbur · 16-04-2006

Typical!

I usually see at least 2 Alfas during the week, come the easter weekend and i have yet to see any.

Saw a green 147 on wednsday and flashed my lights.....nothing!!

I'll get a wave if it's the last thing i do!

Bodgit · 16-04-2006

Nice to see your all trying.Unfortunatly am still puting up my fence most of the bank holiday, but I`m going to try to get out somewhere in the bella on monday.Hope to see some real alfa drivers.

Anyone got any AO stickers yet?

alfatastic · 16-04-2006
