Very nice indeed. I have a thing for white Alfa’s (and 911s).

Thanks, but the whopping extinguisher is in the way....probably more effective at putting out a fire than chucking coffee over it :lol: :lol:

Such a great little car. Seems to make a lot of people smile judging by the reaction so far.

[quote="jonno1"]My 911 is not standard and much quicker than the Alfa. The 911 is a sharper instrument. The Alfa is a little softer and just so nice to chuck about. And the noise is marvellous. Takes me back to my Fulvia days.

I need a double espresso for the 911, only a single for the Alfa.

Parts are so much cheaper! Ordered a rubber seal for the scuttle....it was £17. Not £70

I had a 105 GTV 2000 many years ago. Those came standard with a plated lsd. I found that car to be very sharp in the handling department. A trailing throttle through the corners would lead to body roll but application of power would taughten the response instantly, almost like a living thing, uncanny. The lsd meant you could steer the car on the throttle in a way that I have not experienced in another car. Certainly more forgiving than a 911 though.

Spares seemed quite pricey to me the last time I looked though, £500 plus for a seccy hand bumper for example.

Lovely car you have there!!
