Heres a real anorak question! Does anyone know how many 145 Cloverleaf's were produced or imported to the UK? You dont see many, and just wondered if they were limited production at all? I'm guessing they just didnt sell many, rather than it being small production run.

Answers on a postcard?

Spooky

Are you not busy at the moment? I never seem to have time to think of such things!

 

[spooky]

I know, I know. A friend asked me the other day, and I didnt know, so I thought there must be some anorak on here that would?

I once heard there were only 400 coming in a year. Whatever, it is a rare and special car that should be loved and cherished

You know what I'm saying! Were all anoraks really, thats why were here! Better to be an anorak about something cool rather than trains or stamp collecting, or BMW's!

Anyway, 400 a year eh? Any further bids?

 

[RicksAlfas]

We could ask how many are on here, and then at least we know how many are owned by good looking, intelligent, gods.

 

[xtremeuk]

I have one

 

[RicksAlfas]

First God on the list!!
Nice one

I will be No.2 God, and Bazza can be No.3, unless he wants another number for some reason.

Oh hang on, Spooky started it, so maybe he should be No.1 God.

TBH I see more cloverleaf(s) than I do boxers, so I reckon mine is more rare than a Cloverleaf!

Someone had a link or a book with figures in didn't they?

Was it on www.carsfromitaly.com ?

I'm surprised you didn't claim to have one tucked away in the garage Dave!!

I don't need to, Rick, i was publicly proclaimed a God years ago.

the lotus is my dads.

The car only cost my £2,100 5 weeks ago. Some little bit have fallen off now The back box rusted away i think it was the orginal one. I have repleced the rad and themostat and fan switch and i think i need to change the wiper relay, as the blades skip arross the sreen and last but no leased a front tyre, as i hit a drain ona country road But apart from that i love the car. I remember when thay 1st came out, i was 16 so i asked (told) my dad to take one for a test drive, then i was in love. Plus the insureance is not to much for me. £717 fully comp and im only 23

Ah the traditional wiper phenomenon !

Its more than likely the wiper blades/arms!
Get yourself an uprated set from the alfaowner shop! They're in the 155 section, but are for the 145 too!

either that or it'll be the cogs in the wiper motor covered in grease, take it out and clean them! Easier said than done though eek! !

The wiper conversion HUGELY improved the juddery wiper situation for me!

God 1 here!! Cool! So as usual we are off topic, but then it wasnt the most of exciting threads in the world! It was worth it though, as I am now God 1!
