    Finally, My new car!!

    Right here it is, the new car. Sorry about the other thread kinda been very busy at work pulling 14 hour shifts and been driving it when i've been free so not much time to browse or take photos or anything. I'll get more pics and i'll nog it tommorrow when i borrow someones cam. All i can say is that its an absolute gem of a car, not the one i was going to buy but one that caught my eye in the Autotrader. 2002 156 1.6 T-spark Veloce. Aint it purdy.

    It has been a lot of your not so smart comments the last days.

    You should consider a vacation from these forums, before you get a forced vacation.

    I'm not really familiar with Alfa Romeos but it looks like a nice car.

    Enjoy!

    One of the prettier cars in the past decade, good buy. I wish we had 'em over here in Canada too.
    i was waiting on a moment, but the moment never came. all the billion other moments, were just slipping all away. i must have been tripping, we're just slipping all away. just ego tripping.

    That is a purdy car.

    No wonder it caught your eye. Do the girls look at ya (or the car) while driving down the street?

    Nice buy. As mentioned above... wish we had them here in canada

    check the electrics thoroughly... some people don't like forking out ~$150-220 on a full check up when the car costs so relatively little in the first place... but i don't like headaches throughout ownership, lol.
    if you weren't aware of it there's a website called the rennlist or something? list cars for sale that other people have already had checked out etc.

    You could always buy an Alfa from 1995!

    Plus don't worry, they're coming back (at least in the U.S.) in the next year or two.
