Here's one, just before it goes off to the great scrapyard in the sky:

It's been run into the ground in true Italian style by my father-in-law who's gone to Italy on holiday and has just announced that he's not coming back.
Shame really as it's only done 80k and would probably make a half decent track car but I haven't got the time, space or cash at the moment.

My OH's dad has a silver 156 lusso which he has owned from new (1998) and it has just 33K on the clock. He's probably going to sell it soon as it just doesn't get used.

Don't buy a diesel.

Buy a GTA. 3.2 V6. Available in a sportwagon shape, utterly addictive noise.

£3000-£4000 gets a useable one with issues.

£5000 gets a reasonable-ish one with miles.

£6000 gets a sorted one with 80k ish.

£7000 gets a sorted one, with all the common go fast mods do e in really good nick.

£8000 -£10000 gets a blindingly good one or an Autodelta or Autolusso 3.7-3.8 litre conversion. 300bhp plus or a 3.2 with a supercharger.
