The North Wales Introduction Thread
Hello all
It’s about time I introduced myself properly to the lounge.
I am new on the Alfa scene, I bought my 156 in April and I have loved every minute of owning and driving it! I’m ashamed to say I passed the chance of buying a 156 eight years ago and instead bought a Frontera!  We all make mistakes!!
I’m slowly getting to learn the technical side, so if you have any questions or problems, technical or not, I shall try to answer them or point you in the right direction.
There will be meets in the near future, which you are all welcome to attend. Dates for these will be posted in this lounge or on my signature! I’m looking forward to meeting you all soon.
Its over to you now, let us know a bit about you and where you live (this would be very handy for me in organising meets near you).
Rich

Might be sooner than you think, wish I'd had the strut brace before  there's a hotel in Gwytherin I quite like, very out of the way and roads round there are very nice too.

Re: The North Wales Introduction Thread
Yeah I read your thread on that, I'm surprised that the suspension would move that much in a car designed to go quickly!
Well keep an eye out for future meets, I'm sure we'll arrange something soon

147 GTA hanndling stock is a practical joke, i'll keep an eye on what you have going on mate, look forward to seeing you guys again.

Re: The North Wales Introduction Thread
Hi Simon, good to hear from you
I'm quite often near Bangor. We're renting a house on Anglesey as my wife is currently working in Ysbyty Gwynedd for the next year, I'm still in Wrexham but I'm back and forward all the time. Keep an eye out for a light blue 156.
I shall be organising a meet your way soon, as I know there are a few AO'ers your way. Keep a look out for dates

Re: The North Wales Introduction Thread
Hi Paul
much nicer to live up here (but don't tell the southerners i said that!)
My grandfather is from near Harlech so I've always felt at home up North
I'll keep an eye out for you, I'm going to put my AO sticker in the back window this week, so you'll recognise me 
Good to hear from you

Re: The North Wales Introduction Thread
I've been to North Wales, used to lodge in the Mountain Rescue dorms in Bethesda & worked at RAF Valley for a bit
They all speak funny, women are easy and their eyes are too close together !!!
