On a 1998 / 1999 156 2lt TSpark?
I know you get leather, but are there any other extras on top of that? -- Steve H 'You're not a real petrolhead unless you've owned an Alfa Romeo' http://www.italiancar.co.uk - Honda VFR800 - MZ ETZ300 - Alfa 75 TSpark Alfa 156 2.0 TSpark Lusso - Fiat Marea 20v HLX - COSOC KOTL BoTAFOT #87 - BoTAFOF #18 - MRO # - UKRMSBC #7 - Apostle #2 - YTC # |

The (admittedly later - date 05/2000) brochure I've got says 15" alloys on 2.0 T/Spark. Also titanium console, leather steering wheel. It's actually a bit of a bugger to work out who gets what... -- Halmyre ceci, n'est pas un signature |

The odd thing was that they were all (quote) "mis-builds". Every one had something weird in the spec. From simple things like wrong spec radios to really weird things like Lussos with Veloce black dials, Veloce lowered suspension but lusso wheels and no side skirts. The other thing that made specs a random thing was the torrent of imports that were mixes of Euro and GB spec. I'm reminded of a time many years ago when all "L" spec Cavaliers magically became "GL" spec when appearing on the secondhand market. I'd treat old 156 descriptions with similar disbelief (mostly for the reasons outlined previously). -- Z Scotland Alfa Romeo 156 2.4JTD Veloce Leather 'Oil' be seeing you..

A friend in the trade (he no longer works for an Alfa dealer) says that you could effectively have anything you wanted when ordering a 156 - they were built to order with the trim / spec combinations of the customer's choice. -- Steve H 'You're not a real petrolhead unless you've owned an Alfa Romeo' http://www.italiancar.co.uk - Honda VFR800 - MZ ETZ300 - Alfa 75 TSpark Alfa 156 2.0 TSpark - Fiat Marea 20v HLX - COSOC KOTL BoTAFOT #87 - BoTAFOF #18 - MRO # - UKRMSBC #7 - Apostle #2 - YTC # |

My 2003 Veloce was missing the rear middle headrest and 3 point seat belt. The specification showed that it should be there so Alfa got it sorted. At the time I thought how could the car be produced not to the correct spec. So probably in the mis-build category! Cheers Tony |
