Hi all, no one attempted to dissuade me from looking at a rather expensive but very nice 156 v6 SW, so before I proceed I thought I'd ask some opinions. I currently have a 124 spider, which no longer suits my needs as I now have a dog. I did look at a Stelvio to solve this but couldn't bring...

First thing my dick of a brother in law said when he saw my GQV was "another impractical car then". 340 miles were gobbled up non-stop today, and the bars and folding roof box were used in anger for the first time. A great combo, no whistles or other annoying noise. It even colour...

We had an outing to said event at the NEC today. This involved many miles on the M6 in the ****ing rain and paying ten quid to park but no matter. The theme of the show was barn finds, hence lots of tatty rusty cars and straw all over the place. first actual(ish) barn finds. Starting with this...

So the time has come, with three kids, no garage to store/sorn it in and too many other projects on the go I've finally put my beloved GTV up on Pistonheads. Used 2000 Alfa Romeo Other Models TS LUSSO 16V for sale in West Sussex | Pistonheads Next time around I'll need to find a sleeper that...

What do you guys think? Help needed! I currently own a MiTo cloverleaf and my wife is coming to the end of her PCP on a Ford KA. We are looking to get a family car now and I'm torn between swapping her KA for a 2.0TDCi Titanium X mondeo or going for an Alfa 159 to join the MiTo. Anyone got any...

you know when you look at something and think, "that looks familiar?" then i saw woodys mug ! i think we would all like a 1.7 sud to nip out at a weekend in.:D IC

Just a heads up really. In the April edition of Practical Classics magazine they have a two page autopsy on a 1980 Alfasud 1.5 engine.

If you haven't got a copy of this months PPC, go get one!! I still don't know whether I absolutely love or hate this mating of classic Alfa and modern Nissan, but I would certainly love a go! Is this a fellow AOer? Top marks to him for being brave.

Email just received from Mark (AROC Cotswolds Chairman)........ Hi All Apologies if you are not a 916 GTV owner but it is too difficult to separate people by model ! I am contacting you with regards to a photo shoot Practical Classics are organising for the GTV Spider (916). They are...

....nice to see my Alfa 6 on page 55! Have posted some pics on the gallery on here too.

Earlier I was sent to get some firewood. I came home to find my brother was visiting and had dumped his [email protected] box car on the double yellows outside our house as usual because he is too lazy to walk. I asked him to move his car so I could unload the boot full of hardwood in my motor but he was...

The Sud made it into this months Practical Classics (June 2011) You all know the story! Got some great photos sent to me:)

Latest PC edition has two interesting subjects relating to Alfasud. The first one has a really nice presentation of "Dave Armstrong" Alfasud QV Ti. Congratulations to Dave for a fantastic result. :thumbs: Second subject refers to the "Top 10 Drivers Cars" and as you may have already guessed...
