Not many 4WD Alfa 33s though - you may have seen or more probably heard mine - black J reg. May be sacrelige but you're more likely to see that than the scooby in town!!

Arron will certainly have heard it - sorry mate !!

Don't be envious mate - classics are still the best (flame suit on!!)

More than likely - go that way most days, the thing is it it a nicer sound than a scooby? I think so - but I am a bit biased

Have to agree with the fragile bit - but equally I'm just off to take my 43K bog standard scooby purchased from a main dealer 28 days ago to Baldock to be checked out after the "Check Engine" light came on yesterday and I seem to lose significant tuirbo boost at indeterminate intervals - never mind it's all under warranty - still a pain in the butt though.

Ooh, thats not good.
Mind you, at least its under warranty.

My Italian toy has just gone to specialist for service and new clutch (!) and MOT, so that ain't gonna be cheap
