opinions on this Ebay 75 2.0TS by
MeatballTurbo
http://makeashorterlink.com/?X22F52AE8
I've gotten some larger photos from the seller, if someone wants to see
them to give a better opinion.
I can see it isn't immaculate, and the interior needs a good sorting,
but apart from that what do you think?

Tyre size by
drut
Hi everybody
I have a chance to buy beautiful alloys to my 156 but they seem to me
slightly too big - 17 inch with 225/45 tyres. Will they fit my 2002 156 SW
1.8TS?
Cheers

Two weeks ago, on the way to Gatwick Airport to catch a holiday flight
with my kids, I had a coming together with a Fiat and a Toyota and the
result is that my beloved 156 2.0l TS is a "Total Loss".

nick of time due to a highly...

Sportwagon 2.4 JTD by
Morten Fossum
Hi,
I'm about to try a 2001 Sportwagon 2.4 JTD for a possible buy. I've had two
Alfas earlier (a 90 2.0 and a 164 3.0), and I've driven a Selespeed, but
I've no experience with the diesel versions.
Any advice about this car. I've seen the 2.4 advertised with 136, 140 and

156 CD changer by
Simon C
Gareth
I have the 2.4JTD from 2002 with the same sound system and as far as I can
remember, you will need an Blaupunkt changer unit and all the wiring already
exists in the rear of the car.
If you lift the carpet in the boot, you should find the wiring under there.
