My new Alfa GTV V6
Discussion
Well, after lots of arguments with myself, it seems like logical thinking has finally been overruled, and finally got the car I've really wanted for ages.
Its a 1999 3.0 V6 phase 2 5 speed, teledials, aerokit, black leather, 62k and seems in really good nick. And bloody fast, which is nice. Really practical as well, and economical..... I may have lied a bit there..... but I managed 24 mpg which is more than expected. Belts and suspension bushes done recently as well so hopefully not too many massive bills for a bit.
Driving is brilliant, great for giving it some stick or pottering round town, and the sound is great, might get a slightly noisier exhaust in the future, any suggestions welcome, as long as its not too much of a racket!
Cheers Batty for showing me yours at the Cheddar meet, still local to the area so possibly a mini-hoon sometime?

loving the teledials, and the aeropack spoiler. grab yourself the splitter for £40 and you'll complete the look.
would love a hoon, perhaps get Pete (pdv6) involved too

Batty, I think it has the Aerokit splitter, though in black (doesn't show too well in the photos), is that the right one?
indeed it has!!!doesn't show very well on my moniter.
start burning some fuel
oh and you know you want it louder

Thats lovely. I'd be after one but I'm not allowed one
I've over ruled the mrs and should hopefully be getting one in a few months, not the V6 thoughsure the Twinspark is a decent engine, but the 6 pot is something else
