My ti has been away for a long (near 30 months) time, originally she was having a V6 conversion which never happened. I won’t go into all the details as Sunday just gone Jules and I had a trip to Yorkshire. Thoroughly enjoyed my lean, mean, green machine on the way back to Liverpool, even when...

I posted a month or so ago that my turbo blew and a friend was going to fix it. Keep in mind this friend has fixed problems on all our cars in the past year or so, incl software upgrades, gearbox replacements etc. Thinking back, I realise he knows VAG cars, but not Alfa Romeos. Anyway, he said...

Fred at ProAlfa is selling his gt all major work has been done... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-ALFA-ROMEO-GT-1-9-JTD-JTDm-16v-GREY-not-159-156-147-ti-/151213617871?

Drove my 159 for the last time last night, handing it over to its new owner. The Brera is a very different car, but I did a lot of miles in the 159, enjoying just about every one. 4 years was the longest I have ever kept a car and the fact that I wanted to own a Brera S whilst there were still...

Picked up my new GT Junior today. Does anyone know the car DBP 79E as the only history it came with was its last mot. It's had all the panels replaced with fibreglass ones, debumpered and a 1600 ( i think) engine fitted. Mot expired in July but should pass with a bit of tlc.

I was a car nut from the age of about 7 and I have a 1966 Observers Book of Automobiles that I pored over as a child. As an eleven year old I was mesmerised by the pictures of the Alfa 2600 Sprint and the Giulia 1600 Sprint GT and knew that one day I had to own one of those beautiful cars. One...

I have been tasked by a Friend to sort out something sporty with enough rear seating for two kids as a second car as I have history of buying and selling doer uppers. I have several 156 and Sportwagon which we use as our daily transport (home mechanic) and have owned GTVs in the past. His...

Thought I would reflect on nearly 6 years of spider 2.2 JTS ownership, 57K everyday use. It is the most drop dead gorgeous car on the road and throughout the ownership would still look out of the window lovingly and would always get admiring glances and looks. 57,000 miles and no breakdowns so...

So I got a good friend of mine hooked on wanting an Alfa after I bought mine and he put me in charge of finding him a Brera V6, he didn't want a GT purely because he thought the brera looked better, which I agree with! After months of looking I found the perfect one about an hour away in black...

The bloke who I share a lift to work with has recently written of his 10-plate Mondeo TDCi Titanium X. He has 15 grand to replace it with something similar but not the same. What should he buy? He's 60 and is willing to downsize, a bit. His son is the body shop manager at a Vauxhall dealership...

i'm planning on doing a car swap with a mate in the summer, so i can take his big estate car on holiday across europe, and he can use my 159 in the uk whilst i'm away does anybody know if i'd be able to take out my own temporary cover on his car through one of the myriad companies out here on...

Just back from Chris Variavas.

After just over 16 months of ownership ive said good bye to a wonderful friend. I may have only known you for 16 months but the times we've had, the fun, the speed, oh the joy... I'll miss that warm red glow you gave me every time i turned the key. Good bye dear AirBag light I'll miss you.
