Re: Introduce Yourself To AONE

Thanks for the welcome.

When I had a BMW I went to the BMWOC area meets. Too much lifestyle, not enough car talk. What can I expect at an AO meets?

Alfa GT 1.9JTDM

Re: Introduce Yourself To AONE

Hi, I'm Steve, living in Birtley Co Durham. Married, one daughter 19 years. Project Management for a living.
Just bought my second Alfa, had a 156 from new in 03, then a new Audi in 06, coming back to Alfa with a used GT 1.9 diesel, silver, red leather.
My head says drive an Audi, my heart says drive an Alfa. Heart wins.
