Warning My Interview with Me

Your Forum name Taliaz


Real name Maria


Age 35


Occupation Risk and Business Continuity Manager


Lives Cambridgeshire


Marital Status Single


which cars do you drive and why? Alfa Romeo 147 1.6 TS, why cus I love it, been looking for a new car for a while and hate audi, bmw, Vauxhall, was starting to hate my civic and looking for quality, comfort and fun and saw the alfa, had a test drive and now I am called a Petrol Head!


Are you a real passionate for Alfa Romeo? I am now, cant ever see me owning another car as the alfa is now in my blood


What or how started your passion for Alfa Romeo and…
….do you think it’s fundamental to own one to have the passion?
Liked the look of them for years but never really thought about owning one, but then when I test drove my one I just fell in love, i dont think its fundemental but once you own one you get the passion anyway so ....


Would you ever consider joining an Alfa Club or are you already a member of one? Yep I joined this one and am looking to join the uk one as well.


What do you like most about Alfas? Everything! Looks,style, the way mens heads turn when I mention I have one and the jelous looks, the pure enjoyment of driving one


What do you like least about Alfas? The moaning from B****y men about how unreliable they are and I should have got a nice skoda instead!!!! … And the suggestion that I must earn loads of dosh to have one! (OK I concede I do earn a fair amount lol)


What would be your dream cars? The Spider (one day and one day soon I will own one!) tho would like to test drive the new Jag, nice looking motor that



What car would you least like to drive? anything other than an alfa, or jag

What would be your ideal drive in an Alfa (destination, passenger, driving music, etc)? ideal drive …..hmmmm destination would be somewhere where windy roads are prevalent, passenger – just me on my own with my little alfi is best, driving music has to be Queens of the Stone Age as its just ideal music to drive to.


Any humorous Alfa or car-related stories you wish to share with us? I am a woman hence I am not apparently supposed to have car related stories


What interests do you have outside of Alfas? Rowing, rowing, risk management course and ermmmmmmmmmm rowing, art, meditation and did I mention rowing


Tell us something nobody knows about you. (E.g. special skill, ever been on TV, etc) I used to play Tight Head Prop for a women’s rugby team


Do you have a party trick? If so what is it? erm…… I can down pints in 30 secs when really pickled, no mean feat apparently


What do you like most about the Alfaowner forum? Any favorite threads, episodes or people? Friendly and a laugh


If you had £50,000 you had to spend in 72 hours, how would you choose to spend it? Pay off my loans etc and then revamp my alfi with new Alloys, new sporty steering wheel, sporty gear stick and anything else I see that I want and can afford

Like Clarkson says, you can't call yourself a true petrol head until yo've owned an alfa romeo

Rowing! Can tell your definately from cambridge (can't say much I used to live there!)

It's not the car - more you must earn lots of dosh, to keep repairing it...

But I run a test department that tests vibrators.....that tends to make them feel worse...
