Unless it has a V6 engine it is not a proper Alfa! ;)

At a guess (as we can't [smiley=rolleyes.gif] see, no link!) it is a 164?

Had 2 of them, lusso and a Cloverleaf  [smiley=kiss.gif], wonderful... when they work!

Edit: Now we have the link...

155?? That drives the wrong wheels.. and it's the girly engine!  :P

Quite a tidy looking motor but could look a whole lot better with a decent set of alloys bolted on.  :y ;)

No comments on this particular model, other than its wrong wheel drive.

I ran a 2.5 v6 Alfa 75 for a couple of years.  Absolutely belting 'Q' car - looked like a Fiat but went like the clappers!  Handled quite well too.  Handbrake looked like the flap control from a JumboJet!

Initial fears of maintenance costs and difficulty were soon dispelled.  Like the Omega, there is a thriving group of like minded individuals who endeavour to ensure the cars are kept running.

As long as you like it and can afford the cash costs, give it a whirl.  You may well be pleasantly surprised.

If we ever meet face to face with a small glass of dry sherry, remind me to explain how that particular road rocket came to be in my possession....    ;)
