Following TG tonight I've been told the Maserati has to go to make space for a P1. Now how many times do I need to win the lottery first?

Thought TG was brilliant tonight and what surprised me is that I now know I want that's QuadSki, that thing was awesome. I live by Bosham on the South coast and that is the ultimate pub transport.

Even Mrs Conaero said I should have bought the Alfa, wishing I hadn't given up my deposit now.

I just hope there will be a Maserati (GranSport???) based on it!

P1 tall squirm through Eea Rouge, with 900hp to play with, can there be a better feeling?

Well done, beeb, my faith restored in Top Gear!

My thoughts exectly,great episode an nicely done!

not sure i liked the 4c to be honest, it looks very small, bolted down bonnet and no power steering......i would never get in and out of it with my bad back lol

It is small Tess....Its Alfa's answer to the Lotus Elise/Exige with more comfort......Now I think its stunning...Especially from the back and it will be a halo car for Alfa but I can not help but think that all the money they put into it would have been better off making the 159 replacememnt the best car it can be as they need this car more surely...........Still glad they made the 4C though as with any Alfa ... rare or not....It will be within most price range in a few years...

I thought the 4C was stunning - it's one of the few new cars I've seen in a while that I've thought 'I've got to have one of those!'.

Fortunately for me the wife also said that too and asked if we could have one when the TT goes back next March.

I can feel a call to the Alfa dealer happening today...

Anyone on here know what the waiting list is like on them currently or even whether there is any chance of getting one by next March?

Did I read that Matt had a deposit on one?

Just to add a footnote I registered my interest with Alfa Romeo UK and with 2 dealers that I've bought cars from and have received nothing back from them.

8c looks (and sounds) mega but I'd need a small lottery win for one of those...

Designed in Britain, built in (I think they said) Detroit.

Agreed, much better. All of it, actually. Good entertainment and well shot.
