Hello again, i am going to look at the said car this afternoon, although i am a mechanic i thought i might ask the ph massive if there is anything i should look out for common faults etc.
Cra has f/s/h and a t/belt at 70k currently at 88k, its a manual 6 sp with Q BODY KIT whatever that is, looks nice though.
TIA

Well done old bean. About time too.
I have been researching 156 bodykits..... The 'q' system on alfas is the automatic gearbox which is a pig. So, I don't think its an 'automatic' bodykit . What it looks like is a kit similar to the gta set up only not a bit more subtle (from what I can see from the picture)

Unless of course someone has better knowledge.

Nice to see you in some italian metal sir, 5 more and you have caught up...

Get the warranty on it.
