jens, i love alfas as well. when i graduate i think im gonna reward myself with a 147. not the new designs though - fugly. want a previous-model in black. sexy.
Very nice. I also have Alfa-fever. My dad's owned two in the near past (a 75 and a 155), so I'm well aware of all the glitches, bug, problems, fuckups, squeaks, cracks, shits and fucks that come with one. But they're such sweet cars!

Been looking at a bright red 147 2.0 TS for a while now, maybe 2006-07.

Until I get balls to actually risk owning an Alfa, I continue to cruise the streets with my Astra. Bleh, even though it's one of the better looking Astras I've seen, even if I say it myself (Black Metallic 5D Hatchback Cosmo w. brushed metal laquer paneling (or summut) and leather lined cup seats).

But a 147, fuck yeah. Also, and I know this sounds very teen, I love how the new Mitsu Lancer looks. I've just never owned a ricer, so maybe I shouldn't start now. Before the H-Astra, I've had a G-Astra, F-Astra, MkIV Escort and two soap-box BMW:s.

one of my neighbours at home has always owned alfas - for as long as i can remember. normally swaps them out every 2-3 years. he keeps a 147/hatchback model and a 5-door family car at all times. normally gets the brighter, bolder colours too- bright blues and reds. the red alfas are sexy. one of his tweaked 147 hatchbacks was what birthed my love for them, actually: completely blacked out, black rims, leather interior with red stitching. loved it.

Good idea to get a slightly used one also. The pricing trend on new Alfas is a drop by over 50% during the first two years.

Is that the one with the salami-speed gearbox?
A friend of mine has one and was going to sell it because he's scared shitless it coul pack up at any moment, but when it came to palming it off on a starry-eyed kid he didn't have the heart to do it.

Just put my MINI spec into the configurator to see what it's going to look like :

+ fully kitted out interior, pretty much have all the options in there, but most importantly Harman Kardon Hi-Fi system...wayyyy better than my last MINI, but my last MINI sold for the exact same price that this is going to cost.

If you're wondering why soft top, it's for the Caribbean.

Should be here in a couple of weeks !

That's life with an Alfa - you love it, but are constantly scared it will break down and/or kill you.

Yeah I do think the softtop is kinda girly/homosexual looking, but if you'r going to drive it in the caribian (from britain wtf?) then I guess it will be function over form :3

I'm going back to live there in a few weeks, and you can't buy them there, I used to have one over there but sold because I moved back to the UK, but going back again lol...No car I love to drive more.

The one good thing is that if I ever decided to sell in the future, they sell for a profit over there. On my last one I made a 10,000 dollar profit on a 1 year old car with 15,000 miles on the clock lol.

I really couldn't care less. Getting fucked in the ass is meant to feel great, but that doesn't mean I want it to happen to me.
