Yeah white is the must have colour.. but very rare. And as for the red leather it doesnt exist in the gta's. Its either all black or black wth one of the following blue, tan or grey inserts
I got it from Luton he only had it since october.. and yes there is a scratch on the drivers door...
Yeah i viewed 3 other ones before this one about 1400 miles round trip to view them all!!
It does put you off when you see a uncared for one.. the first one i seen was rough and i was promised it was mint!!:mad::mad: travelled 550 miles to that one - and that was from a dealer! didnt go to view...
After finally landing my 147 gta got it washed today and my cousin took some pics....
There was some pics up yesterday of our run out but it was dirty....hope you like
ha cheers mate! go get one then!!!
Yeah the new diesel alfas are every bit as good as a audi a3 or 120d!! think the new ones are 170bhp with a fancy LSD
thanks again.... you get your clio specially painted then?? wonder how close the alfas "Nuvola White" is to the old gt turbo raider's...
yeah my arse was nipping when i drove round the corner on the top of te mountain and found it layered with ice..... and then the car came to a slippery halt about a meter from the exposed tarmac!!
cambelt is a routine thing about a 500 quid service from a specialist should be done every 3yr 36k.. (alfa state 72k DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM)
Cambelts tend to snap between 40k (for the unfotunate ones) and 80k but they nearly all snap before the qouted 72k which is a disgrace to be honest.
Diff...
well only had the alfa 4 weeks and it is pretty sound, now its original chocolate diff had been upgraded and its cambelt (made from sugar paper) has been replaced. They are a reliable car if you do a little research. Its the silly thing that let them down like i have stated (cambelt and diff)...
need better pics imo.... i think it looks a bit on the dodgy side being taken in a pub car park... (im sure its not!) if you had some taken from your home and more of them i think it would reassure potential buyers.
gutted that would have topped it all off to have a liquid yellow vee come along!!!
To be honest i dont know if i would have liked to take the vee over the passes.. purely becuase of its width... then again its looks are probably quite decieving is it any wider than the gta?:S
wrynose and...
its a 3.2 v6 with standard 250 bhp and fwd mate, criticised alot for its heavy front end and crappy diff, so thats why i immediatley upgraded the diff now has so much more grip away from corners its like a different car.
Yeah i flashed it but got nothig back :( piers.. its the 2nd i have...
oh so so much quicker :rasp:
not really sure to be honest not had a fair drag yet plus the weather and greasy roads are not going to favour the gta... Though i have just had a uprated lsd fitted so me and piers will have a drag test sometime soon....
car looks 100 times better when clean too...
yeah so far had people wanting to swap -
02 M3, 66k and me give him 1k
Impreza p1 36k "Pristine" and cash my way
Nissan 350z 20k and cash my way
97 TVR Griffith 500 44k straight swap
cant believe the interest its had compared to the MPS
after months of struggle to sell my mazda3 mps took this in px as it was best deal......
i will no doubt sell it before long if i get the right money but its mint to drive for the moment...
had it on pistonheads for 14500 for the last week and have people wanting to px a M3, P1, and...
just had a look at your car on pistonheads... dont think the pics do it justice.... nicest cup i have seen in the flesh! good luck with the sale... selling my mazda interested..;)
I swapped my r27 for a mazda mps (2.3 turbo) and it gets better fuel economy than the clio with the same driving style/roads!! shame as where the r27 looks better was more fun on twisty roads the mazda is obviously far far quicker on most roads....
