My Alfa journey started today...

Picked up my 159 Lusso 2.4 jdtm this afternoon, already utterly in love!

Very nice, congratulations! Such a great looking car.

I've just bought the same in black. It feels really special to drive doesn't it. Mine had the wrong glow plugs fitted, wasn't starting on cold mornings (still pretty chilly down under). I fitted the right ones and now no trouble at all.

Thanks! I keep gazing at it out of the front room window.

Yeah, can't believe how good it is to drive. That said, I'm coming from a Mitsubishi Carisma so not much of a comparison!

Wasn't that the car that finally made clarkson leave the old top gear?
