Well finally on Monday I get the Porsche back from the garage. The running problem was the ECU. Now he is running sweet...................

But................

What to do? confused I really love the porsche but I now have the Alfa.

One has to go.frown

Help!!!!

V

Alfa Romeo Spider P reg with 50k on the clock.

I have been informed I am NOT allowed to keep both as that will be three clogging the driveway. I have also been informed I can NOT keep one as a track day car. Christ parents spoilt all the fun these day's laugh

Park one on the road, and make them both track cars.

Congratulate your parents for having an intelligent child.

Sell them both and use the money for a supercharger conversion on the Mustang! If you've anything spare, buy a Corsa as a run-a-round! smile

Hamish!!! Wash your mouth out. A CORSA!!!!eek Besides want to try and get a garage at the house first to house the beast.

Think I might just put both near the side of the road with for sale on them and see what goes first. laugh This will probably back fire on me.

I'd happily have a Corsa if it meant also having a supercharged Mustang!

Simple... There will always be sunny days so chop the roof off the 944 and ditch the alfa. Or chop the 944 and keep the alfa. smile

Actually, in all seriousness, if you can afford it, I'd always have a drop top in the stable. Nothing beats crisp winter days with clear skies, the heater on full whack and the roof down cloud9

Rent a garage nearby the house? A freind has the same problem, and he rents some garage space from a local farmer, an indoor cover is all that is needed, and bobs your uncle! 3 car Stang!

If you like, I will swap you the Porker for a ratty old Shogun LWB that's currently rotting away at my parents house. You would probably be able to park the Mustang and the Alfa inside it thus freeing up space on your driveway and stopping my folks from moaning at me about the Shogun. Also, it's pretty much all downhill so I'm sure the Shogun would make it wink

You can't get rid of the Alfa...

Sorry Gylen you will be shocked but I have also put the Alfa up in the classifieds eek What's even more shocking is I had a Nissian Micra out on road test today. Time to get this old girl committed to the funny farm as I think I have lost it.

Going to try and sell both cars and buy a cheap diesel 206 or similar for the Aberdeen run.
