Have a drive in all, I’m not sure how much you would like a Cali. Get a GT4. Or even a 997 GT3.

Coming from a 4C, I don’t think you will be happy with the Cali.

Yeah totally different drive for sure,but that’s what we need to be fair. Only planning to keep it for 2 years while we do some touring around the uk. Love the GT4 but will poss replace the Cali with one after we’ve done.

Can’t see any car that is so beautiful, so much fun and is evidently a solid investment. There is nothing on the market like it for anywhere near the price.

It's every 2 years. Price seems to vary with main dealers, but there's a fixed price menu on Alfaworkshop.

As above , main dealers seem around £900 first and third service , second around £600, after warranty it’s off to an independent , I’ll use Alfaworks . I had 3 years free servicing from Alfa when I bought the car in March 2017, if your buying a car secondhand that’s around that age see if it’s included , I think the offer ran for about 3 months but not certain on that

I'm definitely seeing a more relaxed approach to the bolt tightening service by the way. I've not seen any cars with bolts out of spec from the dealers I have spoken to. I do believe this can be relaxed to a 4 years check for cars with lower mileage use.

Glad to hear that it helped with your decision.

This makes sense and seems to be in agreement with some dealer's advice in the USA also.

Does this come from Alfa ? Ive always been told not servicing properly invalidates the warranty and also I cant see Alfa taking the work away from the dealers as £900 services must be good for them

Thinking of possibly moving mine on.
Absolutely love it, but I really could do with something with more room now.
Tend to go out as a family in either the wife’s Vitara or my Navara.
Want something nicer to use.

Have found a lovely Giulia QV at Alexander’s Prestige.

Have asked for a trade in value....
I’m sitting down.

Racing pack or Standard (but spec'd with racing exhaust and 18/19s) - any effect on prices?

[MellowshipSlinky]

That’s what mine has.
Waiting valuation...

[detee]

If your in the North as it seems, ring Robbie Scholey at Alfa Knaresborough, he has sold a few of these. Superleggera on here would probably give you a good bid.

Just a thought, good luck, I actually sold mine for good money in January.
