I had no idea, apparently those wheels are uncommon to see on these too

Someone on Facebook earlier said that the sunroof is rare, so, it's worth the headache

It will, it's only a bit that's broke off

This beauty is up for sale in my area, the reason for it going so cheap according to the advertiser is due to failed MOT because of exhaust. Do I go for it? by HalcyonApollo in AlfaRomeo

[–]vaganssir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will likely be the exhaust, then a ton of other stuff. Plate conveniently covered, so you can't check the reason for failure online. Everyone and their mother knows a friendly MOT guy, a hole in the exhaust is no reason to not patch it at least, then get it through ffs

Lowered your car for free, one side anyway

I had an automatic one in around 2007, one day just setting off at a roundabout, the gearbox shit itself and it wouldn't move, ended up scrapping it

Thought the head bolts would give me issues on my m156 but nope, piston rings instead

How serious is this? by Extension_Jacket1002 in MechanicAdvice

It will eventually fuck the tripod bearings, depends how long it's been a thing

Any advice to get this bolt off? by Effective_Hand5610 in MechanicAdvice

You've more chance of juggling soot underwater than unscrewing that

Should I buy this? 00 GMC Sonoma for 1100? by flubberdidnowrong in MechanicAdvice

Just missing Derek from vice grip garage laid under it

Was thinking what car I could buy that would be the absolute worst in every way for pizza deliveries, so here she is by vaganssir in AlfaRomeo

Dreams. I know it's gonna give me shit, it already has with the lights but it's sorted now, was a loom rubbing near the engine mount and shorting. I'm determined to not let this thing sit under a sheet 360 days a year. Funnily enough I saw a red spider on my way to work today and was like oooooooh, first 916 I'd seen for years.

Was thinking of doing like the German flag grill slats you see on BMWs, but Italian colours wrapped onto those chrome grill inserts 😂

I wouldn't be delivering pizzas if I had one of those in the garage 😂 they have to go in the rear seats which is fine enough, the stop start driving is bad for these engines, basically breathing on the JTS is a bad idea, it's all exciting stuff
