Wibble!

Not a daily driver though, I assume?

Not a daily driver no, I have an A4 Avant for that. Although I did bring the Junior to work today because I couldn't resist cool

Thanks. I've just been discussing on AROC what the wheels are, I'd never seen them before. They look a little like Momo Tortoise shells but they're not. I think they look great.

I have seen another Bertie with those wheels, if you ask Stuart Taylor he may be able to shed more light on what they are.

What a car!!
I like those little Alfas a lot saw a few racing at a classic car race a little while ago they look brilliant, never seen one in green before and I must say it does look superb.

Fantastic.

So how does it drive in comparison to more modern stuff? I'd love one of these for my garage some day, along with a few choice bits from Alfaholics.

It drives very well. Very tight and responsive steering. Quick and chuckable. I do plan on an Alfaholics fast road handling kit but it doesn't desperately need it.
