At last

I've finally after all these years bought an alfa and after a week of driving i can honestly say i should have bought one years ago but there's nothing i can do about that now. My family and friends thought i was nuts but after seeing and being driven in one they have been suprised by the quality of the car. The car is alfa red and after being given a coat of swisswax the looks it gets from other drivers takes some getting used to. I've had many cars but nothing compares to alfa romeo.

Re: At last

Good for you mate: Just spun her shiny 147 down the M10 and M1, and at the roundabouts got similar looks.: One female in what I reckon must have been the latest Aston, gazed at the glossy Alfa Red.: Good job she didn't see the ugly mug who was driving it.

Re: At last

The car is the facelift model on an 05 plate. The car had only done 7000 miles when i found her. I'd been looking for months for a good 147 and almost bit the hand off the dealer when i saw her. All the negotiating tactics flew out of the window. I just had to have the car no matter what!! But i still got 500 off the price he wanted.
