Announced by Marchionne yesterday, a smaller Maserati SUV (smaller than the Levante) based on Giorgio / Stelvio... TURIN -- Maserati plans to launch a second SUV based on Alfa Romeo underpinnings by 2020, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles CEO Sergio Marchionne said. The model will be positioned below...

Got my new 2.2 180 last week and now decided that instead of just looking and admiring, I should see what features it arrived with. Step 1, play with all the switches and Connect. Step 2, RTFM to discover that there's about half a million options. The first confusion was the 25W Bi Xenons...

Good Morning Hive mind, So the good news is my 500 quid tatty spider Florence has an MOT! (no small feat I can assure you) The bad news is I have a new clunking noise. It is coming from the front left wheel/area. It is related to road speed and is it seems 1 "clunk" per wheel revolution. Not...

Hello all, I've just bought a Brera 2.2 JTS S (I've also just posted in the intro thread) I'm based in Ascot Berkshire, can anybody recommend a good, relatively local specialist? I've read up on Alfa Aid in Maidenhead, some people rate them highly but others say they are overly expensive...

hi All, just went to see this: Used 1999 Alfa Romeo GTV LUSSO V6 24V for sale in Northamptonshire | Pistonheads Does anyone know it? Seemed honest enough, quite a few things that could/should need sorting however.

Is the 1750 tbi based on the old Fiat/Alfa architechture (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_Pratola_Serra_modular_engines) or is it an all new design that doesn't come in any other variatons?

Does anyone know of a Midlands based remapper who offers the Alfatune/AHM remap for the 159 TBI 1750? Both companies are a fair old trek from where I live unfortunately!

I'd like to see if it is at all possible to find out any history I can about my car before it came to the UK from Germany. Anyone based in Germany able to help please?

I'd appreciate members' comments, experiences and recommendation re. any Manchester based Alfa specialists in terms of basic maintenance, servicing and upgrading. A quick search pulls up Peak Alfa and MVC.

My wife's mito is 4 years old with 29k on the clock so I'm told we should get the timining belt replaced, can anyone recommend a garage in Newcastle area to do it. Please don't reccomend Bristol street Motors on scotswood road as I won't ever set foot in that crock of crap garage again, will...

Hi all, Newbie here looking for a GTV or GT to live in the garage as a toy to keep the motorbikes company and to use when the wife & daughter steal the 2 car's on the drive. Cheers

I am after a car based pick up for a work vehicle. I am not talking about the Ford Ranger (which we have now), the Mitsubishi L200 or the Toyota Hilux type vehicles, these are too big for our needs. We need a small car sized pick up. VW/Skoda used to do one based on the Fabia but dont appear to...

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151989675223269.1073741897.258620003268&type=1 I'm curious to see how things will turn out. They say their main focus will be on luxury. "We started a new and interesting project. We will turn a compact city car into a luxury vehicle"

We not big on Dodge here but because its part of the mother company it should be shared. See some resemblance especially with the rear end, and it looks like they sent over a box full of gear knobs...mmmm, wonder if they know it falls apart. And they threw on the MA Head The Giulietta is a much...

Hi all After a MCSF warning today, I think it's high time I got myself a way of reading fault codes! I use a mac and ideally want to avoid the hassles of getting Fiat Ecuscan to run on it. I've read so many posts on fault codes I'm a bit confused now.... Could someone please confirm if this...

I need help folks :) Today at our group H&S meeting I was "nominated" as the person who is going to create our group HS&E cloud based web site :eek: Our MD is an iphone fanatic and want's the board and all of the senior management team to be able to access a cloud based site that links all...

Lots of speculation and press releases but the new Spider due is in 2015 (which probably means 2016+) apparently its to be based on the mx5 floorpan with an Alfa body and interior. Alfa are going back to its roots, rear wheel drive and the duetto retro look. Perhaps maybe early spiders can only...

hello all - joined the forum with my 2007 spider, a car I will probably love if i can get the roof working more than half the time! I previously had a 147 and loved every minute of it!! Ian

Recently purchased a Spider through ebay (based in Devon!). The car was picked up and transported by Paul Devlin Car Movers (based in North Glasgow). Cannot reccomend the guy enough. The total cost was £350, which was some £3-400 cheaper than other quotes I had. I also looked into hiring my own...
