Never given them a second look before banana but that’s great.

Did they do a Brera or Spider with the 1750tbi?

Collected from Unity Oxford on Saturday to replace my 159 2.4 Ti. Perfect timing to drive to the AROC annual meeting at Bicester on the Sunday!

Yes, but not many!

I’ve got a Brera 1750 TBI

At the end of 2018 there were 58 Brera TBI’s on the road and 33 Spider TBI’s.

They are rarer than 4C’s

Found myself this Veloce spec 156 2.5 V6 recently...I've just got her back from Autolusso, Penrith (great bunch of lads) who've done cambelt change / full suspension refresh / Koni shocks / GTA arb’s / Quaife diff / Wizard exhaust and various other bits and bobs.
The old lass has only done 75k which i'll be increaseding substantially with a trip to Southern Spain next week...

I had to sell my Mito to cover my bills this month. Zero hours, zero pay and because I'm employed the Universal Credit thing is less than universal. Meh.

I was looking at punishment cars I could afford to run for a while when a member of the owners club offered me this...







...really rather pleasant 147 twinspark as a part exchange for my Mito.

Funny how there is no such thing as a cheap Alfa...

...oh well, back to work part time tomorrow so I hope nothing else falls off. I have noticed the exhaust is half past dead and now the rear suspension feels tight the front is more notably sketchy. Coming up to 140,000 miles the wishbones and bits up front are service items anyway.

Wowww. Need to show my GTV roads like that.

She mostly sees motorways and car parks unfortunately.

Thanks for the positive comments.

The car was sourced by Richard Banks of Alfaholics in 2012 and then they stripped the shell, seam welded and painted it before it was built up with the following spec:

Alfaholics twin spark 200bhp engine with twin 45 webber carbs, all ancillaries, oil cooler, catch tank, electronic ignition etc.
Alfaholics lightweight radiator
Alfaholics GTAm cam cover in burgundy
Alfaholics C pack sports suspension
Alfaholics 6 pot brake kit inc. all lines and pedal box upgrade with adjustable bias
Alfaholics Limited Slip Diff (track spec LSD)
Alfaholics Lightweight flywheel
Alfaholics Stainless steel exhaust
Alfaholics uprated rear prop
Alfaholics 15” GTA wheels
Titanium bolts and wheel nuts etc

The interior is largely original and has great patina, the running gear is obviously not but a lot of fun.

Now that is a dream spec. Didn't realise it was an Alfaholics built car. Very nice choices you made there !

Alfaholics is just round the corner from my work, I see their cars occasionally (presumably on test drives) and they always look incredible, the white one above being no exception.
