captain

Hi All, I am a sailor not a petrol head but i do love my newish 2003 147 2.0 T.Spark with a passion! It is the most beautiful machine i have ever owned bar my canon camera. I have always admired Alfa's from a distance but now that i own one i am beginning to see the light. I realise i am only...

Hello my fellow alfa obsessives...! Many apologies for my self enforced absence from the forum, but unfortunately we suffered a death in the family and it turned my world upside down :( and if that wasn't enough my poor wife forgot to put the handbrake on her ( actually, I let her THINK its...

Hi all, I'll get to the Selespeed issues next time, but for now my main concern is this recent leak... Noticed it yesterday for the first time, coolant level in the reservoir is sitting near empty if car is hot or cold (maybe a cup of pinkish fluid in there?), but doesn't seem to be going...

I thought you might like to know, that coming out of the supermarket I heard a really nice sounding car. So much so I sped up to see what it was as it was stuck in traffic on Dartford one way system. The car was none other than GTA - S10 GTA. The lights had changed and he was stuck by the...

Here’s a video of my mate The Captain chasing his son, Pilot Pete, around Donington on Friday. The Captain’s car is powered by a 170+ bhp powered Pinto and is running on slicks. Pilot Pete’s car, with the camera onboard, is powered by a 220+ bhp powered Zetec and is running on Toyo 888s. The...

That's my head wobbling about in front of the camera. :o

So here's one taken at a track day at Teesside Autodrome on Monday. :cool:

Check out some of the cars he catches and passes with ease in a car nailed together in a shed and powered by the engine from an old Tranny van. :D

Ode in The Captain's Westfield. The Captain in Ode's 147. The track.

:cool:

More adventures of my Westfield driving mate. :cool:

I know it's dependent on the types of journey/roads etc, but I'm a little worried that I'm in danger of being landed with the crime of being SLOW IN CHARGE OF AN ALFA!!! Average mpg: 55.4 (I'm consistently > 55) Average "velocity": 38.4 :( And this is since the remap :eek: Maybe I need to...

The Captain chasing a GT40 (Replica?) and Pilot Pete 'domintating' one of Italy's finest. :cool: Apologies in advance for the soundtrack. :rolleyes: :p
