Re: S4 inspection

You could try asking Simon Whiting at Gran Turismo Engineering 07860 538437 or Richard Norris at ClassicAlfa 020 8693 0707. If they can't help, they may know someone who can.

Re: S4 inspection

Not sure if it's convenient for you, but there's another good independent Alfa specialist in South East London (Catford) called Gonnella Brothers. Call 020 8690 0060. Always very helpful - they may be able to do an inspection for you.

Re: S4 inspection

It looks very special I hope your relative knew what to look for though!

At least the S4 "should" be better protected than older ones.

I sat behind a delicious red LHD S4 on the M60 today for a good 10 minutes. Very lovely, but the two BIG guys under the soft-top looked a tad cramped together!

Good luck with her and have fun.

Re: S4 inspection

He knows the score, and what to look for in Alfas
I just hope better than my S2 from 25 odd years ago, which my bank manager,a tr4 expert, found for me. That had problems which came to light later on, but I was young and bought with the heart .
