Alfa Romeo Guilia QF
Discussion
Congrats on getting your car and good choice of colour - same as mine! It even looks good covered in winter muck.
Answering your question about tyres - I had the same when the weather started getting colder and the Pirelli’s were too stiff because of the cold. I went for Continental TS 830 Winter Tyres from mid October and I have not had the issue. The performance is great with the Conti’s and no noise, but I also get to put the Pirelli’s back on in March! : D

Thank you, amigo. I had thought that cold, stiff tyres might be the problem, but to get a recommendation re a specific tyre to resolve the situation is really great.Answering your question about tyres - I had the same when the weather started getting colder and the Pirelli’s were too stiff because of the cold.

De nada!
Do you have Apple Car Play on yours? Mine didn’t have the option and I have it on another car and want to see if it can be retrofitted.
I'm sorry, amigo, but I have no idea. Not only that but my teenage daughter has left now so I can't even ask her.Do you have Apple Car Play on yours? Mine didn’t have the option and I have it on another car and want to see if it can be retrofitted.
Ciao.

I'm not sure if this is very helpful to you, but according to my daughter ( who Googled the subject ). It does say ( in confirmation of your comments ) that QF's are compatible with ACP, but they are an option. A pal,of mine is taking delivery of his QF later today. He is a real techie; I'll see what he says.
Ciao,
Rosanne.

Still call BS.
Your probably right, but on what bit! i think this is a very tangled web, so some parts are true some could be BS! are you calling for custard?i mean it sounds like either the poster is bi-polar or 2 people are using the username, or one person is and pretending to be someone else!
That garage doesn't look like a boat could fit in it though

I couldn't get the John Deere tractor, or the six mountain bikes, or the ride on mower into that garage either,,let alone the boat and trailer. All that lot, and more, fit into my barn. The garage is for daily use carsi mean it sounds like either the poster is bi-polar or 2 people are using the username, or one person is and pretending to be someone else!

I am truly apologetic, guys, if my comments make you believe me to be any of the above things. We are an ordinary family who like nice cars. Both sets of our parents were the same.i mean it sounds like either the poster is bi-polar or 2 people are using the username, or one person is and pretending to be someone else!

That's how we inherited a Lagonda Rapide, a Humber Super Snipe estate car, a Hillman Minx convertible, a Singer Vogue and a Triumph Dolomite Sprint. Daddy was managing director of the Rootes Group, which is why we have so many bloody Hillmans, Humbers and Singers ! There is also a Porsche 356 knocking around somewhere.
If you are scouring the net to try and trip me up, you might find that I once said that I owned a chain of nail bars. I do, but now they are run by my daughter, since I prefer cows to humans.
Ciao !

Sorry but what is a QF?
It's QV as in Quadrifoglio Verde.
Congratulations on a lovely motor!
Actually, the Giulia is just Quadrifoglio. They dropped the Verde. So to differentiate from the Giulletta Q.V. people have started calling it QF. Or Quad. It's definitely NOT Q.V.It's QV as in Quadrifoglio Verde.
Congratulations on a lovely motor!
