Basically - where is the best place for me to get hold of the hose indicated below? For my 205 I tend to use GSF, is there a reasonably priced alfa alternative anyone can recommend?



Was driving back from the airport last night, 'enjoying' the noise of the v6 through a tunnel drivingnuts and noticed liquid shooting out through the drivers shutline of the bonnet behind the headlamp so pulled over quite scared yikes. The (rather crappy and ancient) hose above had split, spunking coolant all over the place. Glad it was nothing more dramatic! Any thoughts/recommendations would be appreciated

Unfortunately, probably dealer-only (or a breaker). I often use Alfashop in Norwich and EB Spares but I'm not sure they'd do hoses. I've seen silicone hose kits advertised on Ebay before now. They're made by SAMCO and look cool but are very expensive.

I was going to say EB or AlfaShop too!
Also worth trying Shop4Parts as well.
