[Mcbeth]

I can find that out, but you need to know it's 5 hours north of Edinburgh. Still of interest?

Interesting how it ended up there. The registration is originally from Leicester so probably from the Glebe Road Garage in Leicester who were the Alfa dealers in the city around that time.

My Brera from yesterday's run on the rollers.



Made 245bhp against a standard 256 but 260 torques against a standard 237.

One of 25 cars on the day. My mates mint M3 was down by 12 BHP, ditto a regularly dynoed Cossie (first time at this place)

Is that measuring from the flywheel or the wheels? They can lose a bit through the transmission, friction ect.

Some lovely Alfas there!

Wheels. All new to me but the dyno calculates the loss by using it's own power to turn the wheels / transmission etc.

It's an actual this way rather than a guess. I don't have the at wheels figures.

May well go back there (Indigo GT Motorsport) for a map. The chap says the graphs are smooth but there's scope for tuning.

After a few years away we have just rejoined the Alfa fraternity
Deposit paid on a rather lovely 12 plate Giulietta 170bhp Veloce in white.
Can't wait to pick it up on Friday and will update with photos then.

Well, I'm two-and-a-bit hours north of Edinburgh, so that's a good start...

Seriously, I already have one middle-aged convertible Alfa so it's not for me, just a more general question to see whether it had a future.

Latest acquisition

[Mound Dawg]

Nice that. Still the best looking coupe of the 80s.

[dinkel]

Can't wait to hear it roar.

It's currently parked up in the in-laws garage at Low Hesket.
Just needs a battery and good to go.
Must manage more than the 300 odd miles I did last year.

Alfas and TVR's must go hand in hand!
I kinda wish the salesman hadn't pointed out that mode, Laura would have been blissfully unaware
I gave her completely free reign on which car to choose, rather chuffed she went for this rather than a new Polo or Clio.

Hope your well, haven't seen/heard the Cerb burbling through the village in a while.
