Picked this is up finally just over a week ago, loving the tyre/weather combination so far biggrin



Superb!

I can’t ever remember seeing one on the road, a future classic for sure!

Slightly biased should get mine at the end of November smile

I've only seen two so far, although one of them lives around the corner so I'm not sure it counts.

Be careful with the Corsas, they're quite terrible when they or the road are cold and/or wet.

It’s depressing, as I’ve just turned 50 and have been thinking about my last non electric car to see me through to 60. A 2 door 440d M Sport is currently favourite for such duties.

Eight years old now, five and a half years and 45k miles since I bought it, and it still looks really good IMO. Not sure what I'll ever replace it with.

Identical to ours, and we feel the same way. Love it.

I’ve always liked the Guilietta and tried to get my wife to get one after her Mito.

I also tried to get both sons to get one, but again to no avail as they bought an Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series respectively. The Guilia due to their excellent resale value was out of their price range.

That's actually the colour we used when we painted the Alfaholics GTA race car! Looks slightly darker here but that's it.




In keeping with the thread title, a recent shot of my own car-

I could watch that for a day.

Did Jo Bonier race Alfa any other than the famed Sprint?

I don't know but that is (or WAS) his M6B.
