So, I'm finally a "petrolhead"...

Today I picked this up:

Its an Alfa Romeo 159 2.0JDTm Ti in Stromboli Grey with Black Leather interior, with the lovely 19" TI alloys and shiny red calipers:

Absolutely loving it

Don't you mean Diesel head

Looks like a lovely bit of kit. Hope you aren't paying for the tyres, one of customers has an Alfa on 19"s on pays €230/corner, same tyres as the front of an Aston Martin IIRC.

235/40/19 - Bridgestone Potenza RE050As on there at the moment and no, I wont be paying for the tyres

Love it

I'm very jealous but in the 'cool glad for you type of way'

Jonny69 · 23-03-2010, 19:47

Wow, it looks so... so very very new, everything

I bet it smells incredibly new as well

It's not a TVR, so at least it'll last more than about 30 minutes.

So many sad jealous comments on OcUK. Not unexpected though. What a tragic, tragic bunch of sad-cases.
