I want one and the one's I've found all look afordeable. Should I pick up one for a daily driver? Apart from the R-word, what's the trouble? I aim for '84-'86 cars.

Err, is the R Word "Rust" or "Reliability"? wink

(Sorry, just being Friday-difficult biggrin )

I wouldn't have one as a daily driver. Great cars, but a bit old, rot-prone and fragile these days.

If you want a transaxle Alfa with a V6, look at a late 75. Not as pretty as the GTV, but significantly improved rust-proofing and comfort levels.

I ran a 75 TSpark as a daily driver for a few years and still have it now - although it's now relegated to 'toy' status.

That's the 3.0 right?
