Cool, I must admit I don't really wave at all Alfa's as I think they'd think I was mad, but I'll keep my eyes peeled for a car like yours and will give you a wave!
Don't really go over Hall Green way, have to say it's been ages since I last saw a 164 on the road, they've become rather rare beasts. What garages do you guys use for maintenance and servicing?

You got me  Astwood Bank is about 5 miles away just the other side of Redditch from me. In a bit of a twist i used to work over your way, place called Huf UK (Automotive components) between Tipton and Great Bridge.

Re: Where are you
I'm Rich and in Birmingham, originally from West Brom (where the football team is, for those who don't know it) I see lots of Alfas around here and on my daily run to the NEC, so maybe it's some of you on this thread? Would be nice to meet up sometime and make ourselves known. Long time happy WAD customer.

Re: Where are you
Thanks Paul, thought it was about time we had someone in this area who actually cares about our beloved Alfas!! Service and a curry, should be a cracking venture.

Re: Where are you
I think you'll do well , even though W.A.D are in Wolverhampton , not everyone wants to travel that far . I certainly drop in when im over that way .
I've always thought we need a mobile indie specialist , for those smaller jobs that could be done at your own home or work .
