Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Suspension needs a pumping.

    It has a VVC interior and alloys.

    Make sure it's a good one as shyte ones are a pain as is the engine access

    Great fun to drive and better ride than the later TF.

    I think the convertible Alfa is the way to go, will appreciate in value eventually

    It's a dealer who probably got it as a trade in

    arrive with a grand in cash and you mightn't have to walk back.

    Although the mgf would be a better drivers car than the alfa I my opinion it represents s very poor time in British motor manufacture! It will never carry the same kudos as a b or c and compared to the alfa lacks style, I'd go for the alfa always liked them and starting to get scarce now

    sounds sound, Now then, do they do a 3 litre version Alfa fans?

    Sure if your planning on having a mid life crisis would a mistress not be cheaper than either the mg or an alfa, :) ... Mind you in north cork the car may be safer ..

    Just shows what you can get for 2K here if you're willing to pay the motor tax (with the inevitable hike this budget). There's fun driving to be had at fun prices, too.

    Would probably opt for the convertible Alfa though would prefer it not in red.

    Class. My best mate has both. Both with the 3l Busso V6 :D

    Spent a glorious weekend in the spider last August! The roof only went up in the parking garage!

    If it was me, I'd go for the 3l spider with small highish profile wheels, leather and a manual roof. A much more comfortable ride than you think and loads of space for even very tall driver + passenger :)
