Well, you wouldn't see much difference between 159 and 157 as it's the same
car, just another number.
159 is the "name" of an old and famous Alfa Formula 1 racing car
theybrecently have chosen to use in stead of 156 + 1 = 157

Sounds a bit healthier. A nice round 300 would be good though, possibly a bit
much to route through just the front wheels.

If they said it in the 70's then it must be true.
Everyone told the truth back then.
