Hello AROCA,
I've been hanging around the forum for a while and attending some AROCA Vic events with my girlfriend for over a year, but have not really introduced myself here as of yet.
You might have seen me at some of the displays recently in a silver 159 2.2 JTS Selespeed.
I have been driving it for about 3 years now, It's my daily driver for getting to work and uni mostly and is always kept very clean.

It's pretty standard with only some minor things modified which I would say suit it very well including a K&N Air Filter, Custom 2" dual straight mufflers, and original wheels powdercoated black.

Thanks
Jessey

Welcome to AROCA forum. Nice Alfa, but then I would say that, after all it's an Alfa.

I think I spoke briefly with you at Spettacolo last year when I was checking out your wheels.

Enjoy.
The Alfa Romeo heritage "rinascimento" (renaissance) continues in each and every new model...the first "rinascimento" being 1915.

I also welcome you to the forum. Nice car. I'm sure that I spoke to you at Spettacolo last year and I have seen you at some other club events.

Welcome to the Forum Jess 159, The 159, surely one of Guigaro's finest efforts, its hard to believe that it is now 10 years old, car looked magnificent on the Eastern freeway yesterday, i remembered the rego,
On another matter, shortly after i passed the 159 and got off the freeway at Bourke rd. i saw the police hiding in the nursery, behind the trees as you pull off the freeway with a hand held mobile $$peed camera.
With the State Goverment announcing today, 400 more Police to be added to the Force,  the motorist had better watch out!, Colin.

Thanks guys, I've been floating around a short while but now you'll know my name and a little about me and the car  :)

In regards to the wheels I actually bought a secondhand set from somebody local and cleaned them up at home, then sent them in to get sandblasted and powdercoated, end result is wheels that are like new in the colour I like and still original, I even got my old spare set done too.

Also I'm working out a club drive in late July, it's been a while since I've been on a good long drive and pretty excited
