Regarding the uno above my parents also had one (a 45) and took the family of 4 on holiday to Cornwall in it. I remember it stopped working on the way down and my dad used my mum's hairbrush to fix it resulting in a frosty trip.
How do you fix an Uno with a hairbrush confused
I fixed a Micra with blu-tac. I miss simple cars.

What did the Sud Sprint go for?

Here's a red 4WD 33 for just over £3K currently:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alfa-Romeo-33-Cloverleaf...

Did Alfa over-engineer the bonnet release with a back up cable?
Many wants. Didn't know they did a 4x4 version, they can't have sold many, surely?
I used to have a silver one. The pedal offset was murder on long journeys, but I loved that car. P/Xd it for a TVR S2.

The slightly racist number plate may have to go. biggrin
Sprint went for £8k, fair price IMO. That 33 is just what this thread is about. Never won road tests but I was still a sud underneath supposedly. Lovely flat four must handle great, but the block was cast iron on the sud so probably on this too.
My friend has just bought a 33 P4, £250!

You picked the only good picture of that car; the others feature a concrete garage wall and what looks to be descendants of Sawney Bean.....

By unblocking one of the jets in the carb with one of the brush strands!

He asked me if I'd like to make a revised offer, I declined and told him to take the £3k he told me someone else had offered
Did you see the mk2 GTI I posted above? It's still available.
