Well I finally found a combination of some spare time, a quiet location and a camera, so I thought I'd show you the new love of my life. Maybe not as exotic as some of the material on here, but I've wanted one of these for years and I'm over the moon with it smile

agreed. Its got to be black on tan for an Alfa... its the Black on Red i find a bit too garish.. although better than boring black on black

The tan leather does seem to be a bit of a marmite feature really, I've had mixed reviews. Personally I really like it, it does a great job of brightening the interior up and makes it a really nice place to sit in.

Since I decided early on that I definitely wanted leather I was restricted to either the tan, black (with the black car and grey dash it felt a bit chlostrophobic) or red (I don't own any brothels), so I think it's the best of the available choices.

Thanks for the comments though smile

A mere £1,200, though I did buy it off a relative so I got a generous family discount smile Not sure I would've been brave enough to buy one without such a detailed knowledge of the service history, but she runs like a beaut.

Where interestingly the Red Leather looks awful!

Good choice on the tan (406 and Alfa)

hehe Unsuprisingly not for sale I'm afraid. Take a look on Autotrader if you're interested mind, there's a few good examples on there for not much money.
