I am new in ALFA. I own beautiful alfa 166 2001. I am in Perth WA.

I am just woundering about the price for repairing and parts..

any ways that i can get the parts on cheap price?? ;)

Welcome to Alfa ownership.  These are beautiful cars and a good buy for what you get. 

I always suggest you get an Alfa Specialist to do a full service and check out the car so you have options on what has to be done in the future.  A few WA Club members will will be able to recommend someone in your state. 

The cars are relatively rare and parts can be hard to find but over here you can contact the Italian Job & Monza Motors as is always one around.

In Victoria, Maranello Pur Sang have an after market 'fix' for the leaking heater core issue that causes corrosion behind the multifunctional screen and associated computer issues.  That's a cover plate to stop it happening again.  Simple but effective.

Cheers.
