Love it......

 

[Andyk]

Me to Dem.......Put a V6 in it...Some sports springs, different wheels, bucket seats, sports exhaust etc...Great track car......What do you think £750 offer.

 

[dem maser]

A bargain andy, £750!!

 

[Andyk]

Just emailed and offered........

 

[dem maser]

Wicked.....keep us informed.....

 

[dem maser]

The kit looks a different colour.....is it my eyes??

 

[GransportFan1]

That is a bargain, it would be great to slot a V6 in it. Dem, i also think the bumper looks a little different in colour, the proper DTM body kit for this car is a fortune, something like 2.5k plus paint. Andy, good luck, keep us informed, i was on Alfa Owner earlier today, had not been on there for a while, some nice Alfa's on there, would love a 156 GTA and a GTV Spyder in red with the V6.

 

[Andyk]

Would imagine it needs lots of TLC....Paint fad will be every where as its been stored for 4/5 years...

Noticed I didn't post the advert...

Wonder if this would fit

[GransportFan1]

i think the 2.5 engine would be a better balance. I think the 3.2 could squeeze in.

 

[Andyk]

Would like the 3.0 V6 if possible......

Anyway what about this sprint one....

looks decent although it is crying out to be lowered on coilovers.

I like this, you heard anything about the offer?

 

[Andyk]

He wants to see how it goes on ebay.........Think he wants about 850/900.......We will see...................It is appealing to me Adam....But then perhaps I should stay away as due to pick up Liz's 156 SW tomorrow in Londan but the chap jumped in the car this morning and the engine management light came on..He was gutted as he has to pay to get it sorted..It was a throttle sensor....Parts take 3 to 4 days to come from Alfa........Great, had my train booked as well.......At least it happened before we picked it up........3 Alfa's on our house...3 times the issues.........

Don't think I will let it put me off....

 

[GransportFan1]

They do look a good track tool, would need a LSD though as i think understeer would be an issue.

 

[Andyk]

Needs a Q2 with a V6 in the front.........Just looking onto how much all this would cost...V6 engine about £1500 maybe...spring etc....£500....17 inch wheels/tyres need with spacers to fill the arches...£1000.......Brake upgrade £500 maybe.....Fitting..God knows....will need to do some digging....Oh and sorting the paint out and the damage to the fronts spoiler.

Would then start on the interior...

 

[GransportFan1]

it would not be a cheap project, think i would rather a 156 GTA and get it up to concourse standard, i do like polishing. Sad i know.


I found the official DTM replica body kit for sale once, the side skirts and bumpers were 2k.
