1990 Alfa Romeo 164 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Cheap and fantastic to drive Alfa"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing really.
Had to replace the climate control system (A$1400).
Tyres were bald, bought new alloys and wheels (17inch Momo Sport, PZERO) (A$3400).
General comments?
Fantastic and beautiful car.
Dashboard is a little uninspiring, but goes very quickly.
17 inch Momo wheels with "Rubber Band" PZeros make this baby stick like super glue.
Mercedes and BMW wished they're cars looked as good as this!
