A PH Challenge. Find me a specific car. I will send beer.

[Tallbutbuxomly]

Right. I am trying to get my hands on an alfa spider in this colour...

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/alfa-romeo-spider-/18113...

I like the red or tan interior however will settle for black if I must. I like this model in specific the newer phase 2 post 98 centre console.

So all you have to do is find me one which has under 100k miles on the clock and for somewhere between 1.5k and 3.5k.

Get to it boys and girls.

Forgot terms and conditions... If I buy a car that one of you find then the first person who pointed it out to me gets beer/wine upto around 30 quid of your choice.

The rest of you get my gratitude and nothing else I am afraid

You would probably get it for less and if it's well documented like mentioned, it shouldn't be an issue. Also it was only interior damage.

Tempting but it was a cat c which means imho price is far too sharp.

There was one is scotland which I was planning on going up to view tomorrow similar miles much better condition and non cat c.


Sold for £2150

Missed another on ebay similar story went for 1800 so 3k for cat c is way over odds imho.

how much, and what kind of beer...

[Tallbutbuxomly]

ummm well lets not go crazy. Not buying 12 or 24 bottles of beer at 20 quid a bottle OBVIOUSLY but maybe 30 quid or so either on A bottle of beer or wine or a case of beer ale etc. Persons choice really.

[paul makin]

the "newer centre console" is the Phase 2 so limit your search to post May '98 vehicles.

don't worry too much about belts and stuff - not tremendously expensive from specialists nowadays, likewise rear bushes, front arms etc. the big job pricewise would be rear spring pans. any of these needing doing could get you a nice price reduction

Fail on three grounds there. 1 Wrong colour. 2 Awful wheels leads me to be very cautious about previous owners treatment of the car and 3 cloth interior not leather.


No beers for YOU!!
