"A dream car for alfa lovers"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

A few little things had to be done : one windshield washing spray was broken and had to be changed. The T piece between the 2 sprays had to be changed. The battery was dead (original one 11 years old). There was also a broken piece in relation with the hand brake : it was active on only one wheel.

General comments?

This car sticks to the road. It turns flat even at high speed, due to the propulsion. The performances could be better : the engine lost a big amount of torque due to the de-pollution laws. Otherwise, very pleasant to drive.

Big trunk for a cabriolet : you can easily use it for holidays and your wife will be pleased to take enough luggage ;-)

Wonderful, I owe the same car and noticed same problems with the windshieldwaschers. I bought a piece of plastic tube at Migros and fixed the stuff myself. I just passed 40000km and the spider (88) looks like new. Want to meet once in spring? I am in the Geneva area on 079 6520605.
