What cars do you drive and why?
Alfa Romeo 155, its my passion
Citroen Saxo VTR, my Girlfriends car, it suits her needs
Are you a real passionate for Alfa Romeo?
Yes
What or how started your passion for Alfa Romeo and…
… do you think it’s fundamental to own one to have the passion?
At the age of 14, my dad had a 164 as a loaned company car witch I liked very much. During that same time, my dad brought a brand new Fiat Punto for my mum, the garage they got it from at the time was a Fiat/Alfa Romeo dealer, my love started when I was drooling at the brand new 145s,155 and 164 which were available at the time finding myself I want to own one some day.
As time went by, I went thought school, passed my driving test and didn’t really think about them at the time until I came across my 155, admittedly I did have my doubts cause of the reputation people seem to think they had, I thoughts soon changed once test drove it! I’ll never forget day and it’s never missed a beat.
What do you like most about Alfas?
The ride, handling, style and most of all the badge
What do you like least about Alfas?
I find the off set number look abit tacky but! Its something I’ll get use to
What would be your dream cars?
Lets say if I was to win the lottery, I wouldn’t go out and buy a stereo typical car that a footballer drives, I would definitely keep my 155 and buy a brand new top spec Alfa Romeo and I suppose I’d had to buy a maserati
What car would you least like to have?
Anything that you find barried up on max power magazines
For you, what’s the most popular thread on AO?
Nothing really, the threads change on a daily basis, I’ll post on anything I find that’s within my interest
What would be your ideal drive in an Alfa (destination, passenger, driving music, etc)?
I would like to take my 155 on a track to she how she copes but then I do like going on organised Alfa drives too especially an organised 155 meet! You should see how many heads that turns
Any humorous Alfa or car-related stories you wish to share with us?
There was at time a few years ago when I was in my old works astra van, I was on the outside lane overtaking a few other vehicles then some idiot in a gold bmw came up my ass and started flashing his light to say I want to pass, so than I start with the hand gestures and shooting verbal abuse toward him, after all I was going quite some speed myself, anyway as soon as the 1st lane was free, I changed back and he just shot passed me. 10 mins down the line, I saw him parked up in a lay-by accompanied by a cop, u can wonder why, and I saw that he could see me laughing at him
What interests do you have outside of Alfas?
Well, its not my job that’s for sure
Uuurr let me see, hobbies, hobbies non Alfa related….my god, this Alfa bug has really taken over my life hasn’t it?
Oh hang on Sex? And beer? Do those counts??
