Re: Anyone fancy this?

My dad has a sprite, hilarious to drive, people moan about Italian car pedal positions, one foot can operate all three pedals at the same time :o
This would be a bit of a handful on a track unless a real experienced driver who knew the car well, wouldn't mind a go in it!!!

Re: Alfasud S3 Badge

Not one for the purists.... I just get later ones and cut the studs off and glue em on! They seem to fade every couple of years so need replacing, you think a "prestige" marque would want their branding to be of better quality, sure it is sunnier in Italy!!

Seat options

Hi all, I'm playing with seats in my Sud at the moment I have a growing collection but am considering options for the front, I would like beige 147/156 seats, I haven't really measured anything up just wondering if anyone had done this? Do they / can they be made to fit?

Cheers

New Alfa on Saturday.....

Hi all, the other half is not very happy as the kids have outgrown her beloved FIAT 500 (Well, she does insist on feeding them..) and needed something bigger.. so she is getting a nice red Guillietta on Saturday, I would like to say my influence has rubbed off on her after 16 years! Looking forward ...
