My newest purchase...

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

My newest purchase...

Well as the title says :D Data: Alfa Romeo 33 QV, 1988 and in a almost perfect, factory like condition :hopping:

I am sad to say so, but this might be the end of my beloved 480 ownership though, as it is way to expensive to get the 480 back to a decent condition :cryhard:

Once I have the time, I gonna take some decent pictures, also some of my 480.

Yummie :D I like this Alfa :hopping:

But your argument about the high cost of 480 ownership :rofl: Aren't you deluding yourself that the alpha is cheaper? :wink:

Congratulations :D

Well yeah, running costs would be more or less equal (i had a Alfa 33 before) :lol: but the problem is, that my 480 is in a shabby condition and would need restauration to be "only producing running costs" :cryhard: lot of broken parts, hot temp = no start etc. :badmood:

I had a ride today with newest Alfa Spider 3.2V6 4x4 :hopping:

This car is amazing, despite the automatic transmission :D a little bit gayly, but who cares. Every woman turns head, regardless of age :wink: Gays are hard. Only every second :rofl:

Nice car! I had one about ten years ago, with the 1.5 boxer engine it was red as well. It was really big fun to drive. Unfortunately it fell apart, the rust ate it.. :cry:

That looks lovely.
We had one briefly about 8/9 years ago. C33 xxx.
Took the sideskirts off and there were NO sills underneath.
Then took the boot carpet/trim out and there were NO sides to the boot where the suspension mounted :shock:
