Occupation

Lives

Newtyle (outskirts of Dundee), Scotland

Marital Status

very complicated, so single i suppose

which cars do you drive and why?

Alfa Romeo GTV Lusso, traded my MG ZR saw it and had to have it!!!

Are you a real passionate for Alfa Romeo?

To be honest untill i owned my Alfa i never gave the company much thought but now im always looking for new facts and looking at other peoples Alfas (there are some stunning cars out there!! )

What or how started your passion for Alfa Romeo and…
….do you think it’s fundamental to own one to have the passion?

Firslty i dont think its fundamental to own an Alfa to have a passion for them, sure it helps to be able to feel the car as apposed to admiring others. And as I said ive just started my affair with my car so just seeing it for the first time did it for me! What I have noticed tho is how everyone shows appreciation for the range of Alfas, not like other brands where say the focus is classed as a good car and a fiesta is classed as rubbish. good example of this was 2 weeks ago i was driving home from work when I passed a GTV and the driver waved to me, never met the guy in my life but was nice to have admiration for fellow owners

Would you ever consider joining an Alfa Club or are you already a member of one?

Apart from the alfaowners club prob not, would love to go to meets tho

What do you like most about Alfas?

the sexy Italian curves

What do you like least about Alfas?

The running costs

What would be your dream cars?

there are 2 other Alfa's i would prob like to own

159 3.2 JTS V6 Q4 and a Brera 3.2 JTS V6 Q4

dream supercar would be a Aston Martin DBRS9

What car would you least like to drive?

Corsa's, fecking hate corsa's dripping with tons of mods

For you, what’s the most popular thread on AO?

The local scottish section is quite good can talk to people near myself

Any humorous Alfa or car-related stories you wish to share with us?

Almost seen an older gentleman crash his Jag as he tried to overtake me on a straight before a huge bend, put my foot down and saw the fear in his eyes as he had to brake behind me

What interests do you have outside of Alfas?

I play drums have played in lots of styles, rock, blues, metal and recently was in an indie band
also play football when i can

Tell us something nobody knows about you. (E.g. special skill, ever been on TV, etc)

I have walked from fort william to inverness

Do you have a party trick? If so what is it?

not really any party tricks but i do love a good party


What do you like most about the Alfaowner forum? Any favourite threads, episodes or people?

Just recently joined.


If you had £50,000 you had to spend in 72 hours, how would you choose to spend it?

like a maniac!! cars, booze...........that prob be it


TO LOOK AND NOT TOUCH IS ONLY TO PONDER
