Hi I'm Jim.
I've just turned 30 and I live in Wakefield with my Wife Lisa.
I'm a distribution manager by day, and Alfa nut by night. I've had my 145 nearly eight years now, and I still love it :p
My main hobby apart from Alfas is Air Rifle target shooting (HFT). I'm a member of Emley FT, though due to work I've not had the time to compete as I'd hoped this year.

Hi, I'm Dan, aged 21, and I'm also an Alfaholic. Currently cheating on my faithful JTD with an older, sexier V6 :D

By day I'm a student, so plenty of time to come to meets! :lol:

I try to attend as many AONE meets as I can too, and hope to bring AOY and AONE together for a nice run through the moors this summer, with me as navigator as I did such a good job last time (Roswell will back me up here) :lol:

Hi. I'm Heidi. I have lived in Liversedge for the past 7 years, and work at Bradford Hospitals. I'm only just on the right side of 30 and am on my second 147 (lost an argument with a Glasgow crash barrier this time last year in my lime green pride and joy).

Originally from Inverness. My family are Italian Car mad - we currently have 4 Alfas between us (my 147, Bro's GTV Cup, and Dad has just purchased a Spider to sit alongside his 156 Sportswagon).

Hope to come along to some Yorkshire events in the near future.

Hello everyone. I'm Tristan, 35 live with my gorgeous fiancee zoe in Mirfield. Originally from Liversedge.
I've owned my pre facelift blue 156 for a little over 3 months now and it still amazes me. I've wanted one since I was 17 in my friends Sud :lol:
I'm a QA supervisor for a large American logistics and distribution firm.
I'm aiming to get to some meets this year, work & extension permitting.....
Happy new to one and all :)

I'm danny, I'm a 22 year old final year medical student...for the next 3 months at least. I arrived in Kirkstall, Leeds from Sheffield many moons ago.

Had the GTV since the summer and since then it's bled me dry. I've become more familiar with its inner workings than I ever planned to but I still love it even though some weeks I can barely afford food let alone beer!
