Hello everybody. This is my first message here. I would like to know if anybody here got a Alfa Romeo 156 Crosswagon, and if he is satisfied. What's good in this car, and what's bad ? Thank you very much for your answers. Pics of your car would also be appreciated. Diego

Hooo boi... Waitin' for that Round Tuit has bit me: Input shaft bearing is now "jangling" prettily. I keep toppin' up the gearbox but I fear I'm now on borrowed time. No idea how many miles this box has done, second gear synchro was shot when I got the car back in '98. "Simpatico with the...

On my 146 I have quite attractive light alloy wheels, which didn't cost much more than the standard wheels. When I ordered my 159 I found that Alfa wanted the best part of 1000 Euros extra for light-alloy wheels, so I decided not to bother. However the salesman made me an offer which, while not in...

I've got a 1996 Cloverleaf with an original (so far as I know) Philips alarm. The fob is a sealed unit and it seems the battery has finally died. Nice (UN)helpful chap @ the local Alfa service dealer (Lythgoe, Bolton) says it's too old and I need a whole new alarm - they can supply one for...

Has anyone any idea when the 159 will be available, and what price the 2.4 JTD will start at?

It's been a while since I dipped into this group but good to see it's still as active as ever. My 3 year old 156 Selespeed has developed a nasty jerky clutch action at low speeds in the last few months which resulted in some embarassing kangaroo moments crawling through city centres! My garage...
