Alfa Romeo Appreciation Thread

Minutes later, the car disappeared into a pile of rust and corrosion!

 

The 75 was my first Alfa

 

there is an Alfa in there somewhere

 

Cousin lent me his Alfa Sud for the day when I was about 18 or 19. Loved it, fast as a fast thing. I’ve never owned an Alfa tho, maybe I should

 

My brother had an Alfa sud, I used to love sitting in the passenger seat watching the road go by under my feet.

 

I gather the Alfa on the left is quite rare. Visited Vindolanda last year.

 

If you’re feeling nostalgic there’s a 75 on Auto Trader for just 25 grand…

Is that a 4C? Yours?
Just chopped in my 159 Ti Sport wagon this year for a nasty Stelvio lorry.

 

Used to work with this bloke’s brother.

 

Alfa Romeo Montreal I’m thinking.

 

Sadly not, my last Alfa was a 159 sportwagon 2.4 litre. Lovely car but felt more corporate in it’s delivery than the fabulous 75.

 

Good thread by the way.

 

This was the only Alfa I've ever owned, nothing special, a 54 plate 1.7TD 159 Sportwagon Veloce.
It was a stopgap I brought for a laugh @4yrs ago whilst I was without a Discovery for a couple of months.

But despite being nothing special, it did have that certain something I can't explain to drive.
I'm determined to have another at some stage, it would have to be a Sportwagon 159, and hopefully a 3.2 Q4.

 

Bonny motors…
