Re: A bit of nostalgia

Clearly a ‘sign’ of things to come that I stuck an Alfa badge over the O for Auto on the front cover…………..or it was simply because it was rou...

Re: Tyres
Hi Dave, warm and wet they were ok, warm and dry as good as a Fiat 500 needed. But cold and wet/damp not great.
To be fair Michelin pilot sport can be twitchy in cold and damp.
I noticed a marked improvement in ride and road noise when I put the yoko’s on as well as grip

Re: Tyres
I wouldn’t based on what you can get here for £40 upwards. Fitting extra bot kumho at 40, yoko, uniroyal etc. The Chinese stuff on my daughter’s Fiat 500 was fine in warm dry weather, poor in cold and damp. It’s got Yokohama now. https://www.camskill.co.uk/m4b0s386p0/Car_Tyres_-_MPV_Tyres_-_People_C...

Hi Kev Yes it is Rodger’s old car, now owned by a chap appropriately called Mario (the current seller). I last saw it at Brunswick when I went down for a bit of maintenance. The engine alone would be close to asking price today if paying to have one built, but at most you’d get the engine and box bu...

Re: 1500ti restoration. Ex racer
Hi James. Sometimes you have to hold out and a buyer turns up. The economy won’t be helping. Plus personally some things are just over priced so it’s hard to compare. The other aspect is you have a bit of a hybrid car, it isn’t a fully fledged road car and nor is it race ready. Leaves you in the mid...

Forgot to say you need to fit the full outboard suspension arms etc if it’s inboard currently.
Do you mean the full strut with shocker insert ?

I think it needs to be donations and not membership or ads, the latter adds cost and complexity in their own right. Somewhere above £10 per annum is mentioned, doesn’t seem a lot I haven’t donated before, more thru forgetting until it comes up. £20 per annum, or even a pound a week by recurring tran...

Re: SPRINT RESURRECTION
The small print in this eBay ad suggest these are oversize. Don’t worry if ads state 1.4 and such like as the rod bearings are the same on all boxer engine sizes. Description doesn’t say Alfa so maybe do a part number cross check. Stick to Mahle, king etc brands https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1959416295...

Re: Twin carbs
Rolling road is the place to go, worth the cost overall. All my engines have purposely run just slightly lean, set up that way on the rollers for torque and power. A stumble on sub 3k revs could be too rich. Appreciate non of mine have been Road use so different circumstances. Just as an extra, are ...

Re: Rally Sprint
Well, I saw the Sprint again, this time when selling the Fiat 500 which looked lovely when finished. Was it a repeat show or a more recent one, I’ve lost track?
Also saw the Jensen Interceptor show, that looked incredible when finished, lovely colour.
