South West Sightings!
So... you think you have seen another AlfaOwner on your travels? Post it in here, and find out if indeed you have - you never know, there may well be an AO'er just around the corner from yourself!
From St. Ives to Swindon, and Gloucester to Portland.... keep your eyes peeled!

Re: South West Sightings!
Parked behind a gorgeous burgundy (it was dark so it might not have been) Brera in the Rashleigh car park in Charlestown and when i left it had been replaced by a black 156.

Re: South West Sightings!
Keep seeing a silver GT here around Truro, think the driver doesn't pay attention every time I go past. Had quite a few sightings last week, was followed by a 156 selespeed and later in the petrol station filled up behind a new Brera, got a strange look from her as gave her a nod.

Is that the pub at the bottom of the steep hill?? Good food and Ale. My old 156s and my GT have all negotiated that hill

Re: South West Sightings!
Walking home tonight, just after 5pm, a nice black 156 with plate ending FLA pulled out of Pioneer Trading Estate in Brislington. Is this anyone on here? See you quite often!
