Title: New Alfa owner
Post by: Chiara on May 06, 2009, 12:01:25 PM
Hi everyone,
I've recently become the proud owner of twins - red 1989 Alfa Romeo 164s.  I had no idea how much I would love my cars having never owned an Alfa before.  Any handy hints to care for my new twins would be much appreciated.

Congratulations on your purchase. 

Get involved with your state club and check out their sponsor's page for a specialist location for advice as necessary.

I am still suprised to see a few low milage cars on the market too (well less than 100kms) - one red in Victoria that looked fantastic at our Specctacolo last year.

As the cars are  20 years old,  the cars have issues like any other car of similar age.  Just depends on how they have been looked after and who serviced them.

Can you post a few pics ?

I'll work on getting some photos.  I've since added to the family.  I now also have a 1984 Sprint - red again!!
