I'm pretty sure I've seen your V6 a couple of times around Edinburgh (leith walk specifically) unfortunately you aren't ever in it!

Me too but when the car was written off the specialist also wanted the wheels. Took me 6 months to get a new car and the ride is much better on the 17's than the 18's... Front tyres totally dependant on brands etc etc, they will do 15,000 if you are gentle, or 8,000 if you are a little spirited...

I have a Q2 limited slip diff fitted so my gearbox is pretty solid. Old exhaust backbox rusts very quickly and I had to get a new one, it was this between the aftermarket ragazzon (cat back silenced) or the stock, and this one sounds little bit better. Old exhaust on my last one doesnt stick...

Well if I get the car, then I will most certainly sign up! :)

When I took those pics the hanger had come of the right hand side so it was a bit low. It's adjusted back up now... I also have to spray the backbox black as the GTA's have see through rear bumpers as you can see. I got the plate with the car. I'm not really one for plates, but it's growing on...

What do you mean?

Now on the hunt for a 182 with both packs :)

Cheers pics are now up in that lounge! :)

Here are the pics some of you requested. My last one...

thanks for the welcome.. I can only post 10 posts a day before paying? Not sure I really agree with that!!!??

Worrying, and even more worrying when they feed you blatant BS.

Cash in lieu of repair? Clearly the best option.... Car isn't a write off, you get cash to repair, everyones happy? I took the 6th and final offer on my old 147 GTA with admiral, Offers started at 3900 and finished with 6700!!!

The 172 feels raw, the 197 feels refined and things have changed a lot over the years so massive improvements in handling etc etc

Forums are the way forward. I look after the traders on Alfaowner.com. :D

Thank you kind sir, I knew there would be one of these around here somewhere. :) Good to know and puts my mind at rest.... :)

Sad times... where do you live? This kind of vandalism boils my blood. I'm really lucky that my car is in a CCTV secure car park over night.

I only use tuners with rolling roads. The first run pre map always gives away any problems and makes sure the car is in the best of health before mapping. :)

I was originally looking at a Clio 182 cup, but since being on here a couple of days I noticed a lot of people are saying just get the 182 with the cup pack? Can someone explain a bit more. Also I've been reading a bout a pulley failure so cambelt changes seem to be very important (just like...

Where's best? :D

Definitely.

Ahh yes I did indeed buy the Ragazzon off him. His car was pretty nice. Are you on Alfaowner? Well I am here to learn so any pointers welcome. I'm never selling my GTA :) Joe

Hey Guys, Shopping for a 182 cup at the moment.. Have a 147 GTA at the moment and fancy the clio as my second car :cool:. I'm a mod on Alfaowner.com (OperationAlfa) just incase any of our users are on here. Joe
