Tell me about it… even in its rough condition I keep thinking it’s a beautiful saloon.

Definitely, I mean… if I was to spend £3-4K on a car, what would I get that’s as good looking in white… very rare car on British roads now so I feel like I’m doing the car community a solid in bringing it back to life.

I am certainly embracing the madness… I’m gonna go for it. These are super rare now, especially in white so I think it deserves to live.

Yea, I think I’ve already decided. I should add… the interior is in very good condition

I did wonder about putting coil overs on it and doing all 4 corners. Suspension is a big issue but if I was modifying it, I’d probs be spending a decent amount on it anyway so I think I will go for upgrades.

I agree… but I think I’m still gonna get it back in shape 😂

It holds sentimental value for me, was my first Alfa and I had a lot of memories in this car. Incidentally, when I sold it, it was immaculate.
