Title: New member, long term owner, 116 Giulietta
Post by: minipete on February 05, 2010, 03:53:54 PM
I just found this forum so I joined to see what is going on in Alfa land. 

I have had my 1983 Giulietta for 25 years, I have put 140,000km on it and loved every one.  It's stock standard apart from Alfetta wheels and a few little tweeks I have done over the years.  I wouldn't change a thing on it (except maybe the gearchange).

Look forward to getting involved and hopefully learning a lot.

Cheers
Pete

Great to seen another Giulietta alive and well. Giuliettas really are a much under-rated Alfa. Only those who have owned or driven one are able to really appreciate them.
I still miss my much loved 2.0 G.
If you want to dress yours up a bit I have a set of wheel arch moulds, side body kit and other trims available.

Thanks for the welcome folks.  I haven't been ignoring them, I only just found the button "show replies to your posts" and found all these replies.  I really need to investigate how this forum works.

I am located in Peakhurst, Sydney.

The Giulietta has remained stock for this long so I intend to keep it that way. 

It has an easy life, mostly trips cause I catch the train to work.  It's an amazingly roomy and comfortable car.

I think it goes better with 160,000kms on it than when I bought it in 1985.
