Alfa 147 GTA

(New) Alfa owner

Hi there,

Not really new to this forum (have only made one post I think previously) and not really new to Alfa Romeo either but thought I'd formally introduce myself!

I used to have (well, still do) a 147 1.6 TS Lusso which I bought when I was 19 because I liked the look of it and you got a lot of car for the money. But now it's developed into a full blown fascination with Alfa's in general and this weekend I took the plunge and bought a 147 GTA (the one that was in EVO)!!

I really loved my TS but the V6 is completely different, I am in awe of everything about it from the gleaming red paintwork to the steriod enhanced arches compared to my old bella, and the awesome noise that just breathes from the work of art under the bonnet.

Now planning on getting used to this completely different way of driving, then me and a mate are off at the end of June for a drive down to Uzes in Southern France so I am very excited!

I have only had the GTA for a day and yet I still cant smiling, just keep gazing at it out of the window ...

Anyway, just realised how much I have written!! But I really could talk about this car forever ...
