  1. Wow thanks for the big compliments guys!

    On the Dutch forum they are not that enthousiast about the "black on black" combo.

    Whil check meassurements tommorow!

    Tires are 225 40 18 wich is common size for 18"

    Didn't need spacers at the front but used 12mm at the rear.

    Black on black would not suit your spider. It is black and grey. That looks amazing.

    I don't understand, when I fit spacers at the back, the tires rub like mad.

  2. @EvoMan, well I think you'll be as welcome in that diesel train ;) as in your beautiful 916 Spider!

    Yesterday I went from Rotterdam to Le Havre in France. The diesel Spider was actually very comfortable. Because of the rain, sadly with the top down. It starts to grow on me. Often you need a good long trip to fully appreciate a car to the fullest.

  3. No thanks guys. Apart from some design issues ( headlights ) it is mainly the price that bothers me. 60K in the Netherlands. I think Alfa should focus on bread and butter cars. Where is the 159 replacement? The Mito and Guilietta are also not that fresh anymore. Alfa should focus on the fundamentals, before you introduce something like a 4C.

     

    I remember the time of the 147, 156, 166, GTV and Spider.....Every corporate driver wanted a 156. 

     

    I am sorry to say, that I do not see this happening in the near future. Rebadged Dodge's and Chryslers will be the future.

     

    That is why I love my Spider and Delta. Even the newer Spider suffers from lack of passion. I will even go as far as, the worst car I have ever bought.


  4. It is not to my liking yet. The contrast with the white paint is to big. I wanted a carbon insert, but the carbon does not suit the white. So now I have an expensive carbon insert that looks terrible. Sometimes things do not work out as planned.

    I found the right side panels this weekend. I would really like a Zender front spoiler. The car will not be done until spring 2014. I can post some pictures if you like, but I would rather show the finished product.
