why do we buy alfas

[jonny manhattan]

out of all the better cars i could chose from,and i do believe they are better cars i would never buy anything other than an alfa romeo and it's only since joinin p.h. that i've realised that i'm not the only one.and it's made me think:- why when some of us are having problems and sometimes big problems with our alfas,rather than sell them like we would if it was our house or anythin else that gave us grief,we keep them.we spend a wee bit of time and a big bit of money on them.but why.what makes an alfa romeo owner different to any other car owner.i've got a great wife,friends,job and social life,so it's not like i've got nothin else in my life.i know why i would never buy any other car but i would like to know why you feel the same.
