Alfa Romeo 156 of win

[Mark Type R]

Just awesome

 

[rossy t]

i for one am looking forward to people bringing up the age old problem of electrics & italians and putting fiat somewhere in the conversation.

and somebody else saying alfas are the best drivers cars with soul in the world; they saw it on top gear.

 

[NYA]

I was looking at those rims for the ST

 

[R35735]

It looks worth the money just for the interior. Gives you somewhere nice to sit when it breaks down. [/rossy t]

 

[Mark Type R]

I've owned 2 Fiats, both were brilliant. No problems.
This is 3rd Italian car lucky, what could go wrong?

 

[Alex-B]

What happened to the DC5 idea?

 

[Danger200]

What's the engine? I saw a touring car version of this at Brands and it was pwning all over the place.

 

[Danger200]

Wtf is a T Spark? Does it have special plugs or something?

 

[Ed]

At least its better then a Saxo (and it cost less) :lol:

 

[scruffy_]

Looks nice.

Anyway lads I'm running a pool on what happens first.

5/1 on an electrical fault.
3/1 on a leak of some kind.
Odds on that the paint will turn pink and fall off as soon as the sun comes out.

Unfortunately the paintwork on some 156's are not the best and
it comes off even if you just rub your nail over the paint.

Now don't get me wrong, this looks like a billy bargain but as Honda owners it's not often we get to poke fun at someone else's paintwork. :lol:

In all seriousness though, ticks the "you must own an Alfa at some point" box nicely and for that sort of money and your intended use you really cannot go wrong.


Boom.

 

[Chris.]

How much did you pay for this Mark?

I did consider the diesel to get to work and back in, good value for money.

 

[NYA]

I'll take a fiver on the leaky car Mike :lol:

 

[Ed]

I'll take £5 on an electrical fault :lol:

Still going strong mate but got to find one in the land of the rising sun.

£900 mate

You may need to pay up sooner than you expected.

Went to the cinema tonight and accidentally hit the rear window switch. It wouldn't go back up! :lol:
So I had the switches out and swapped the rear for front to raise it up. Then promptly disconnected them.

As I was messing about, there was a slight smell of petrol. MOT in a couple of months, I'm doomed. :lol:

Still better than a Saxo :lol:

 

[D4N H]

Was about to post a "things will fail" type thing as well

 

[Evl]

Windows not working are a quirk of the car not a fail.
