Hi Simon, I surf the pages every now and then... I spent 4 years looking forward to the day i get a GTV which happened about 4 months back..... Ive been "grinning like an idiot ever since".

Ainsley from the New Forest

Great stuff Ainsley, it happens when you drive them

Hi,

I'm Rob and I live in Gloucester. Only had my GTV TS for 10 days, and absolutely loving it! Got the Alfa bug years ago when I bought and restored a 33 Green Cloverleaf - loved that car. Been away from the marque for some years now, but it was only a matter of time before I came back to the fold.

Evening Rob Hope to see you at some meets if you can spare some time

Hi,

I have been mooching here for a while now, get my P1 GTV this weekend.....counting the hours/mins/seconds as well.

Wife knows that i will be out with the polish all weekend, bless her she is a tolerant soul.

sorry forgot to mention i am in Plymouth

Hi Jay, thanks for sticking your head in through the door!

Hope to see you around more on the forum, and possibly at some meets/events

Hope you enjoy the car

I'm driving a silver 156 2.5v6 on an 02 plate. I'll give you a wave if i see you!

Hi all, another newbie here.... I've had my GTV V6 just under two weeks and love it! It's mainly a weekend car though as I have to drive some pretty crappy roads for work, and makes a bit of a contrast with my other car (old Fiat Panda 4x4!). I'm normally either in the Cheddar area, Somerset, near Totnes / Dartmouth in Devon or somewhere in between.......

Hi Badger, GTV V6 eh.... nice Hope to see you around!

Hi to everyone from Exeter,
Just got an '86 GTV6 Grand Prix...the drive from Kent was superb

Nice to have you on board Dark!! I do love the old GTV6's You should bring it out sometime and show her off!!

Hope you enjoy the forum and your stay here

Hi, i'm from Liskeard area, good to see lots of SW Alfa's around! We must have a bit of a gathering soon

hi, my names Ross, i live in Malmesbury near swindon, bath and bristol. i drive a 33 cloverleaf perm4.done a few bits and bobs. replaced gearbox, new wheel bearing, cut down the rear springs, stripped out inside, kandN, and the black five spoke speedlines that were purchased with the car in 91.i believe there were only 250 ever made of the 4wd, lucky me.

Hi, Im Jason, 23, Just bought a 97 GTV TS, live just outside Exeter. Very new to the Alfa scene usually play with old vw's but decided a nice comfy Alfa would be a good daily driver.
Ill be keeping an eye on this forum for any local meets etc

Nice of you to drop in tefal Fan of old VW's myself

Seems to be a few from the Exeter area in here, I'll probably see some of you around at some point as I spend a lot of time here for work. Silver GTV here (or the panda!)..

Afternoon all

What better way to kill the last 20 minutes of another week of slavery!

Exeter based Blue 156 2.0 TS Selespeed

Bought it a few weeks ago but had some gearbox trouble ( ) so this weekend she gets her first proper run

Must just publicly thank Roy from Autoitaliana (google him) for being one of the most genuine mechanics I have met in a long time for fixing my 156 for a paltry sum making him both a top geezer and a true gent! thanks Roy

Anyways... 13 minutes to go and I’m free!

Happy motoring all

hello everybody. just introducing myself, I work and live in Plymouth but travel up to somerset regularly in my gorgeous black 147 GTA. mega keen for any meets in devon or somerset. j

Hi I'm Pete, I live halfway between Southampton & Fareham so virtually on the South West / South East Boundary - but I'd say I'm South West!

I'm 43 & had my 2.0 TS 147 for about 2 1/2 years. Loved every minute of it. I'm very defensive towards by 147 & the AR brand from the stick I get from the t***ers at work who just don't understand the appeal of owning a proper car with character. Their problem not mine I say!

Dead keen on trying to make a meet some time. Hoping for the Prancing Horses one at the end of May, but not sure of committments yet.

Will stick some photos up over the next few weeks when I've got her polished up.

If anybody sees me in my 02 reg 147 in Gabbiano Blue give me a wave. I always wave when I can but don't get many back
