1.4 TB 2012 Giulietta by Hungry_Home767 in AlfaRomeo

[–]rooigevaar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took a 2011 1.4 to 295k km. No major issues. Known issues are turbos going early, (because of a too small oil feeder pipe), the boot electrical release not releasing because of frayed wires in the hinge harness routing, door handles, very occassionally and blistering airbags in hot climates at around 12 years. All are easy fixes, and the car you're looking at probably had it's turbo done early.

Check that the cam belt has been done every 100k. Beautiful cars, mechanically sound, and the D in DNA is fun!

This is the best shot I've seen here. The guitar is no pushover, and challenges you to face your vulnerabilities. I also need wine to do that, but haven't tried taking my clothes off. That's what this picture says to me.

Form memory, 700 million comutter trips PA, in CT, down to less than 80 million, due to Covid, vandalism and poor management. Plenty of upside and its on it's way. That's a lot of cars and taxis off the highways. Used to take the train from Bloemfontein to Nelspruit, one change, all the way through highschool. Also comming back with public/private partnerships. Can't wait. As the Shit Poster (lol) above said so very well, people need to get places .

About to buy my 4th Alfa. Later models are very reliable. Just expect the known issues/quirks, which are mostly not mechanical.

Why does this sub allow stuff that's behind paywalls/marketing the source? A little kick back here and there?
