True. The 4C will be lot more usable than the Exige for sure. The Elise/Exige is now quite old and sales are down to a trickle. And there are many doubts about the long term survival of Lotus. The pow

Hi Pb2k, Great to have someone who speaks my language here at last!. I live in Colombo and have 4 Alfas. Of course I am a big fan. Once you've got used to an Alfa Romeo nothing else will do eh? BMWs

The Brera is a sexy, sexy car. I once saw a black example with what looked like plum/burgundy interior (not in SL). Also saw a nice red 166 at the diyawanna end of the parliament road, last week I think.

I take it most of you guys buy your parts from singapore or malaysia. So what's the usual procedure? what websites or dealers do shop at? what are the shipping methods and shipping companies used? I'm currently considering buying parts on ebay uk and having them shipped down through glen carriers or trico

Sorry to hijack the topic, but re. the link above, is this a 94 Fiat Coupe? Looks to be Abarth:

I had no idea there were any here. Any idea how much it is worth?

It was there, but the owner sold it recently.

Yes, it's an Abarth. 2 litre Turbo. Sold for north of 3 mill.

Actually it is not an Abarth Las. The Fiat Coupe never had an Abarth version. Just badge engineering.

But on Thursday you saw the first ever Abarth in the country :) !

BTW, Did you get the B&M going on the 159? I have been trying to update the software since yesterday and its giving me a USB10 Error.

Yes, that 500 was pretty... envious of the new owner... :)

I have seen the new fiat 500 down duplication road once! lovely piece of machinery. Any idea how much it set back the owner?

More than a E90 320i as seen on the papers... ;)

My 159 does not have B&M. It was an option back then. Standard now.

ROFLMAO. Not far from the truth. In reality, mine's pretty much 100% intact. I won't mind stocking up on some ancillaries like lamps, relays, few switches here and there.

Car already survived a rear ending by a 3 wheeler with only a dent. Can't say much about the tuks though... :)

Contrary to popular belief, Italian mechanical parts are easy to come by. Panchi has an underground Italian dealer netwwork who knows their Fiats and Alfas like the back of their hands. I found a tandem brake booster in a dark dingy corridor for 6K.

Italian cars have one of the longest histories in SL and the Panchi dealers relfect this as they are 2nd or even 3rd generation shop owners. The Nelum Motors fella inherited the shop from his grandfather. Prinko 'Uncle' has been there since 'Sreema's times'... :)

Its the trim items that worries us poor Alfa owners... :)

The front of it looks like it was taken from a high end kit car. That design is just WAY too busy compared to the smoothness of the 8C.

I prefer this to the 8C actually. The 8C is very beautiful but a bit too retro for me. When I first saw the 4C I did not like it, but with every subsequesnt "show" it has grown on me. It takes many Alfa design cues but the end result is very modern to my eyes. Besides when you compare this to a Boxter...........

There will be some exterior changes on the production version, which will be shown at the Paris show this September.
