• My school PE teacher had a Alfa 146 (the saloon one) with a cloverleaf on it, he was a right prick so it was probably a genuine quicker one. Looked angular and interesting even compared to other cars back then (1998/2000).
    EDit, it was a Ti, and they are worth moderate money now, damn too late lol.

    Saw a MINT 145 with a 2.0 in it and all the little bits pillaged from other models in the alfa/fiat group to make it as nice as poss in a scrap yard with a mondeo sat on top of it. Could not find a reason it was in there, presume didn't have valid VED on it or stolen in some way and they never paid the fine. Was the right type of red too

    This year intend to find a good Fiat Coupe 20vT+, pref in that scotts green colour again (although collectors will like the broom yellow/portofino blue in the future), but have to get the volvo c70 coupe finished and probably sold, just don't use it, proper comfy cruiser but doesn't do handling or fast (195hp 2.5lpT with a 4 speed auto from the 90s), sound system is sublime though.

  • Problem with fiat coupes are they've usually been modified to within an inch of there lives or ragged the fuck out of.
    I came really close to buying one new in 1998, but bought my first 145 cloverleaf instead.
    But the fiat is an amazing looking car and effing quick as well.
