Alfa Romeo 4C delayed for US until mid-2014 by
MummyChunk
From AB
It appears that Alfa Romeo is banking on the principle of absence
leading to fonder hearts when it comes to the 4C, with a report in the
Detroit Free Press saying the arrival of the coupe has been pushed
back to the second quarter of 2014. No reason was given for the delay.

Fisichella wrings out Alfa 4C at Balocco W/VIDEO by
MummyChunk
Operating a Formula One team is no cheap endeavor for an automaker,
which could be why Honda, Toyota and BMW all dropped theirs when the
going got tough. But not the Fiat Group. With the Scuderia Ferrari
under its umbrella, Fiat has access to a cadre of experienced racing
and test drivers, and all...

Any of the old guard still around by
[email protected]
Hello Alfisti
Sorry, I kind of dropped off the usenet radar for the last couple of years. Too much stuff on at work and so on.
Still got 3 Alfas, and one Maserati :)
Anyway, glad to see there's some traffic in here soon, but it's quiet as it was. Still all good things....
Wondering if anyone...

Glow plugs by
R C Nesbit
I can't remember if it was on here or elsewhere that
someone said 'get a man in' to do this because it could end
in tears?
Well I did - £90 labour, including thread repair.

Hello nice red 75 by
GT[_14_]
Shout out to the nice red 75 between Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes last weekend.
I was in the silver 159 estate that flashed to say 'hello, nice alfa' (but
just seemed to annoy you - grumpy face!).

What an Effing Pain! by
R C Nesbit
Finally got around to replacing the split top turbo hose on
the 156 1.9JTD
It *should* have been a simple case of undoing 2 jubly
clips - *WHY* do they insist on putting the nut part in
*the* most inaccessible place? - more to the point *how*?
2 1/2 bloody (literally!) hours!
