    just got myself a new toy, leaving the Alfa for the daily commute and this for weekend fun :cool:

    including buying, VRT, travel and accomadation the car will have cost a total of €4900, 220bhp for less than €5k? happy days!!! :D

    its had a rebuild 8k miles ago which included, new piston, new rings, CHG, cambelt, water pump, new turbo and new clutch, so all the major work is done

    some pics:

    Nice. Enjoy!

    Why not a GTV though?

    simple really, it was either the Coupe or GTV V6

    I already have a 2.4 litre diesel 156, so the Coupe gave the option of lower running costs, (tax) slightly more practable, and being a lot more tunable than an NA 3.0 V6 whilst having the same standard bhp

    It's worth it for the headlamps alone.

    Q. How do you clean them?
