[dem maser]

as much as i love the gtv i do get tempted by these at times even though i know you need 8k to get a good one, but then i saw this and i thought it aint bad

Great cars Dem...If not a little mad with that power to the front wheels....Good price for that one..

 

[dem maser]

that price is what got me, you can get that for 6k not bad

 

[Andyk]

Don't think I would have one over a GTV...It's probably a better car to be honest but there is something about the GTV looks that just grab you where as the GTA is a 147 hatchback.....Lovely though.

 

[dem maser]

no no no no no i would never have one over the gtv but just saying if you want a hatch or kids you can do a lot worse than the gta

 

[Andyk]

Agree Dem.....I think I would have a 156 GTA before one as well...

 

[dem maser]

must be the 30 year old in me wanting a 147 over a 156 but i can see the appeal, as long as its got that engine i dont care

 

[Andyk]

Yes it is a younger mans car...

 

[dickygrace]

I've been considering one recently too but think I'd look a bit boy racer in one so just about decided against one. Still love them though, ever since I took one round Millbrook and gave it a right good hammering when they were launched.

 

[Andyk]

Its a mad car Richs...All that through the front wheels on a short wheel base....

 

[GhostyDog]

Yes it is a younger mans car...

How young, I'm 35... I know a guy in his 70s who has one too and theres nothing wrong with the power delivery up front once Q2d

 

[Andyk]

Agree Ghosty...but I'm talking standard...Most don't have the Q2 and they are mad as a box of frogs.....Not bad just mad.....

 

[GhostyDog]

Agree Ghosty...but I'm talking standard...Most don't have the Q2 and they are mad as a box of frogs.....Not bad just mad.....

They're not that bad standard, just quite a bit of torque steer, I switch ASR off as a matter of course, tracion control is my right foot

 

[Andyk]

I drove one once and thought that Alfa hadn't made any in roads inot torque steer since the 164.......Love them all though..Great cars you buy with your Heart..Very much like Maserati.

 

[GransportFan1]

Yeah agree Andy, i would not buy an Alfa with my brain, it is a car you buy with your heart, you cant explain why you want one, you just want it.

 

[dem maser]

i have driven a gtv with the q2 and must admit i would get one converted it was that good

 

[Andyk]

May have to keep some money back to do ths then...about £900 though...Its alot.
