I'm currently in love (again) with a classic step front Alfa 105. Preferably fast road modified and decent power.

That video sums it up for me. Out of budget at £190k but you can create something yourself for about 50k I reckon..

Classic beautiful car with modern power brakes and handling perhaps but no modern crap inside as such. An Italian Singer

Beautiful :thumb:

I`m having the same sort of thoughts after returning from the Goodwood Revival last weekend, so many gorgeous cars out on track it would be rude not to have something classic in the fleet :grin:
 
Italian experience is a great one to have despite any remarks about unreliability, brittleness, astronomic maintenance bills etc. banded around in pub room chats by non owner of these marques.

A local branch of Alfa Owners Club meets at the Cheshire venue of TIPEC.
Some stunning cars at AROC meet.

Kris,
Don't forget about a 914. Very reasonable price and a wealth of info on here :grin:
 
I've driven both the QF (which is stunning) and a 1972 GTV 105 which wasn't tweaked. I now need to drive one of the alfaholics cars!!
 
Just sharing some Alfa love. 8)





 
Those pics remind me of growing up in Italy where these cars were a dime a dozen. The 60/70's Italian cars hold a special spot within me. Just stunning
 
Fabulous car, it looks like a riot the way Harris hooned it around the track.

I love it, though if I had 190K I don't think I would be buying it.

Also...

Why did they put a Leyland DAF HGV gear shifter in it. I think that is the biggest knob in the car (excluding Harris)?
 
Yeah , I agree ...I've been looking at these for awhile especially after TP put his up on here ....!

Absolutely classic style but .... pretty pricey these days !!!!
 
There are plenty of faster cars but the lightness of the controls and the smooth sweet ride make this one of my favourite. It also gets the most positive comments from people when they see it, always a genuine appreciation for the styling. I love just looking at it.




 

That's beautiful. Timeless lines. I'm off on a 5 hr drive to Exeter next weekend to view one that's just been restored from a bare shell. Had a lot of money spent.
