I have to agree, I had very little trouble from any of my five Alfas, I have had much more from my BMW's. Depreciation is Alfas downfall, but great value s/hand. I Would love a GTV V6 Lusso phase 2,one of the most stunning designs ever and available for under £5k :lol: :lol:

My daughter bought a Phase 2 twin spark about 2 months ago (V6 insurance is sky high) and it is a car of character and great looks.
Same rad and limited edition 'teledial' wheels.
Uses oil and that Variator rattle first start-up drives you mad!
Her friends have V6's and they are a beautiful sound tracks.

More Italian style

I love the colour and style of Alfa's, had five its heart over head.
The colour is incredible, when I saw it at Goodwood I decided I had to paint something in the same colour and recently pimped a plain white Transporter to this:

Would look awesome on a 911 Hot Rod.

Halfords Oil( I understand its made by mobil ?) is cheap 20/50 does not leak or burn as quickly its more viscous, just fill it to 90% and it uses less ! the teledials are lovely, my twin spark used a pint every thousand miles but it had 145k on it and a set of tyres only lasted 8k miles, I was having fun :lol: :lol:
