1989 threelitre 75 in the ultimate spec.
The 75 is my favourite Alfa, but I'm also old enought to remember how Alfistas hated the America bumpers when they came out (even more so when we found out they were almost 100kg extra biggrin )
Being that old, I'm swapping to the euro bumpers (also cleaner design). But its a matter of taste in the end. smile

Some from AROC track day April 2025 at Castle Combe.
This year there are two members only with an Alfa Romeo only track days. Castle Combe 1st April: sold out, but free to spectate (no dogs, over 18s only).
Then also 21st October at Donington, still a few tickets available (see club website).

A Sunny bank holiday at the start of April seemed the perfect time to de-sorn the 156 GTA.



Its on slightly lowered coilovers and uprated ARBs and always feels slightly crashy on poor surfaces for the first couple of miles. By about 5 miles into the "long route" to the supermarket, I'm 100% in love with it again, it is just an absolute peach of a car.

Based on that picture I’d have to agree.

First commute of the year! Hopefully the next one will be a bit less chilly...

Did you pass out when confronted with the road tax bill?

Nope, it falls into the pre-2005 bracket, which does not include the really silly money bands. £39 a month for the months that is on the road doesn't sting too much in the grand scheme of things.

Awoken for the summer. Connect battery, turn over and starts. Simple, after 6 months off. MOT booked next week so need to evict the spiders and a bit of a clean.

Then will be by local daily for the summer.

The 1st round of the Alfa Romeo & Italian Intermarque Championship takes place at Snetterton this coming weekend - 24 car grid, with 2x Alfa Romeo 4C's, a couple of ex-European Touring Cars, lots of 156 & 147 GTA's, Giulietta's and even a couple of 33's and 146 models. Plus Jamie Thwaites's stunning ex Romeo Ferraris World TCR car (the 2nd one will be out from Donington onwards).

Nice one. I daily drive a 2002 Spider TS since October 2023. And I'm happy. No hibernation btw...
