2007 Alfa Spider - Scraping problem?

[AlfaRSpider]

Hi all,

I've just taken delivery of a 2007 Alfa Spider (new model) yesterday evening and noticed that the underneath of the car was easily caught when going over speed bumps. That was bearable as it just meant driving over bumps very slowly. However, since driving to work this morning (down some very fun twisty lanes) I've noticed the bottom of the car catches on the road surface horrifically at about 45mph+ every time there is a dip in the road. As far as I'm aware it hasn't been modified or lowered. On inspection, the underside of the car does seem to sit quite low and there is evidence that this been scraped many many times before!

Is this a common "feature" of the new Spider?! Anything I can do? I'm worried about damaging the underside over time...

Thanks!

It's the 2.2, yes. From what I've experienced so far, seems like a nice engine. The car isn't too fast, but feels quite responsive at low revs, and gives off an unexpected, but lovely, noise if you catch the revs just right in a high gear.

Thanks for the advice... Looks like I've had the thing for less than a day and I'm already booking it in to a garage! Fingers crossed, nothing too serious...
