1985 Alfa Romeo 33 Ti review from Australia and New Zealand
"Excellent weekend thrash"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Mainly little electrical things.
Some mechanical including;
Clutch cylinder.
Warped discs.
One burnt valve.
Water pump.
Rattles.
Cracked distributor cap.
General comments?
Still looks good.
Handles well.
Sounds unreal with a 2 inch stainless exhaust.
Redline is 6400, but goes to 7000 no problem, day in day out.
Never left me stranded even with a burnt valve.
Thrashed it from day one and have loved every minute.
