    Hi all! Newbie to your group. No newbie as being totally infatuated by Alfa Romeo for quite some time now. Only ever owned predominantly older Alfas and will continue doing so. I wanted to know what your experience has been with Alfa service and individuals who are known as the Alfa Gurus in...
  2. Introduce Yourself
    Hello, just joined, I have a 1977 Spider Veloce in Blue nearing the end of restoration, my trouble is part of it came in bits and putting it back together is a bit of a jigsaw, so I may have some questions. The title is curtsey of my neighbour who is constantly telling me it should be Red

  7. The Classic Alfa Romeos
    Every year when we go on holiday I dream of finding a barn find Alfa and today whilst driving through rural Provance I caught just a glimpse of what I knew was a Guilia in a field outside a ramshackle farm house. I slammed on the anchors and drove down the farm track and there she was, a tatty...

  9. Alfa 147, 156 & GT
    Just to cheer up the endless stream of victims of AR turbodiesel boost issues, who may have thought 'I should have bought a Golf instead'... My son has a 2004 Seat Leon FR 1.9 tdi 150, that shows how VW does it. It's a very nice car in excellent condition. It's the same PD engine as the Mk4...
  10. Alfa 164 & 166
    Don't know IF any of you can recall my critical selection for the vehicle to get MY hearse out of my 166's without the need for a crowbar. Criteria were 1) £3k swappage /scrappage for one of MY BEASTIES. (probably Lacey after I get the dosh for the autobox ECU.)(Oh and the 15 year old timing...

    So last year I said goodbye to my beloved GTV, thankfully it went to a good home. Anyway, long story short I got s brand spanking new Golf. However, take a gander at the email I just got from the garage when asked what they just replaced. Let me know if something catches your eye. Sent...
  17. Alfa MiTo
    This would have been an easy job on my 147. But not the MiTo. The first image clearly shows a quite firmly fitted pipe laying across the first coil pack - no way around it except remove the pipe! Need to get a decent replacement clamp first. The second conundrum was how to undo the coil pack...
  18. Alfa GTV & 916 Spider
    Hi all, Just spend an enjoyable afternoon in the garage starting to assess my GTV in detail prior to getting further quotes for the paintwork... Only i seem to have come up with another problem!? Basically the car won't turn over or start. (Turns over 1 or 2 times on the key then dead)...
