Wow, that Alfa looks in perfect condition! Don't see many of the
155's around. Is that a V6 or a TS? Like the front, has a little of
the old Alfa 75. Bit of an Alfisti myself, I have owned Alfetta,
164 and 156 in the past.

'lo!

Unfortunately it's ony a 2.0 16v TS, and not the V6. *sigh*

She still goes quite well though, quite a clean car... no dinks, a crack in the rear reflector panel just below the rear alfa badge and that's all really.

They are not a veryy common car, most of them seem be be down south, Derby downwards really... dunno why... they just never seem to have cottoned on very much up in scotland.
As far as i know there's only 3 or 4 in Dunfermline (where i live) and i know all of them by their Reg no's... sad innit?

I like Alfas

My old man had a 75 2.0TS Veloce in red with all the bits and bobs many years ago. I loved that car

Including the crazy handbrake

Was there not a special edition of the 155 called the Silverstone or something like that? Think it came with black alloys or similar - only ever saw one on the road - very nice!

Mikael_S

They sold quite well in Germany, seen a few DTM styled there.
Remember Alfa won the DTM with the 155.

jason77

OI! BLACK!!! you know you made a mistake.. getting rid of the alfa!!!

Neil... YES!!!! id did!! were you in Halfords on monday during the day... thought i saw yer motor there.. how u doing? good new year?

Gza... The silverstone... i've seen a couple but they haven't had the black alloys... the black alloys were part of the sports pack over here withe the widebody shape 155... i've found out differant specs for UK compared to Europe... nice wheels!

WHY???? well why not!

DTM... ah.... the alfa in it's hay day!!! THey did well in the BTCC here too.

Nice!

A good friend of mines is something of a fan of Italian motors...

Currently owns an Alfa 164 3l 24v V6 Cloverleaf...

Very nice in Black....He also lives in the Clackmannashire area, so keep yer eyes peeled when out on the road!

The Gza - if I remember correctly the Silverstone was the special edition that Alfa used to get their dodgy aerodynamics approved for the BTCC. They had blocks provided with the car (in the Boot), which you could use to jack up the rear spoiler, aswell as a a low front splitter. And this was what led on to things like the Laguna Airflow, and all the other various winged wonder super tourers that are now virtually dead.

Frazer

Nah that Primera you saw at Halfords aint my car its one of the guys that works there. I have ordered my GT body kit today so keep am eye out for me. I think it will be the only P Reg Bronze GT in Dunfermline.

jason77

ross, cool, i'll keep an eye out

reffro, yes you're exactly right... as long as they met those rules they could run quite happily in the BTCC

neil, i'll have to keep an eye out for you then. when is it getting fitted??

J

Frazer

I'd say within 2 weeks

jason77

i'll be keeping an eye out!

fancy meeting up fer a drink?

J

jason77

Hello guys!

Just thought i'd post a few pix of my beloved.









It's not a Scoob i know... but it's a hell of a lot cheaper

It's standard apart from a K&N panel and a sports back box.

Cuore Sportivo!
