It’s literally a time machine, it’s ace [emoji4]

 

So you’ve already been on the phone ?

 

I was trying to find the website to look at the other cars when I found these guys and boy do they have some cars in stock [emoji16]

I tried to find their site a couple of months ago with no success...well done Adrian.

Sorry edit Adrian,not so,this is the Pommy version of the business.

 

Exactly! [emoji23][emoji23]

Grow up!

 

I used to love driving my husband’s Alfas in the 80’s... wonder how the Sud would stack up these days? I know I’d still enjoy a 105. But then again my old X1/9 was so much fun... ahhhh nostalgia...

 

Nah Pass......GTV2000 105 or walk, had 3 of 'em should have kept the last two I owned .

Although they are tiring on a long trip..............

It wasn't the Alfa that made that trip tiring. [emoji16]

 

Cars and Coffee type car. Would not want to get stuck in Sydney traffic in one

 

Which one? Have driven all in traffic (X1/9 in HK) albeit traffic wasn’t so bad back then...

 

Any one of them really. Would be very uncomfortable without A/C stuck in a traffic jam which is pretty much Sydney on a daily basis. Some things are best left in the past, although a full head of hair would be welcome

You should see the one that was built up here,Qld, and now resides way down south.

 

You can always get a mirkin

 

Blowing a bit of steam - hopefully a loose hose clamp

Had one dead cylinder which looks like it has resolved. There is another video of unintended 3rd gear burnouts while on a quiet drive around the block.

 

Any pics?? Mark added 4 valve TR heads to a 400 block with Ducati throttle bodies. Major amounts of work for about 900hp.

 

It was built by a well known Lambo bloke who has since relocated south,MG knows much more.
I sighted it at his while waiting for it to be transported south....it's red if that helps

 

Iterm has been picked up and sitting on my dining room table......I await further instructions.

 

Sounding rods ?
