Hello all from an new Alfa owner, kinda

Hello all,

My name is Lauben and I was in the market for a new car, but fingers crossed I have solved that now

First off a little about me, I live in the North West of England about 12 miles away from Manchester. But I work near Blackpool so I do about 370 miles a week

Because of this I was looking at swaping my Honda Civic 2.2 diesel for a new car. Now I have been looking at a few cars (350z, S2000, VX220, and the Spider) but this weekend I went to my local Alfa dealer in Knutsford just for a look-see and maybe a test drive, and left with one of the new Alfa Spiders limited edition I think

Now the only thing is I dont yet know if I have the car because they are being sold on a first come first served and if what the sales man said is correct they are only making 200, but fingers crossed.

Anyway I'll let you all know when I hear some more.

Laters.......

Hello and welcome to AO - nice choice of car

same thing as me - waiting for a call from the dealer this morning

Fingers corssed for us both then what colour did you go for??

Well the salesmen didnt think they had all gone - he would know at 8 this morning which seemed a little early for a car salesman to be in work.

I went for the red - didnt fancy the white and the black is hard to keep clean.

What colour have you decided on.

I'm not that worried as I alraedy have a spider just liked the upgrades.

I went for the Black, I know it will be a pain to keep clean by I loved the tan leather, and some how I don't think I'm going to mind cleaning her too much

I looked at a blck spider in the showroom and it loks good clean but was scared it would show all the marks etc.

Still any spider is a nice car to have.

Hello All,

Well after the longest 3 days of my life, I finally got some VERY good news today

I was told by Johnathon of Mangoletsi that I am going to be the new owner of a limited edition Spider in Black with tan leather Now all I have to do is send my Honda back and wait for it to arrive.

SPPalfa Have you heard if you got yours yet??

I hope you did.

Just had some good news from Mangoletsi, it looks like my LE Spider is at the docks and will be with me in about 2-3 weeks Can't wait, 21 days have never seem so LONG!!!!
