Colour

I saw a nice 33 the other day. (as they are all are). It was black.. and it got me thinging... I could paint mine black! but then Scott pointed out that Dan and I would have the same colour heading on our posts, as his 33 is also black. It could be confusing for you all!

Damage!!

How sad is this? My recent road trip with the 155 ended in me being towed from near Port Jackson back home. The fuel line was ruptured by a stone on the gravel roads between Fantail Bay and Port Jackson near the northern tip of the Coramandel peninsula. I noticed instantly, as I lost power. I pulled over to check what had happened, and looked under the car to see petrol pouring out of the fuel line.

To give you an idea of the deserted nature of the road, not one car passed me in either direction from 9:30am when I broke down to 11:30am. Thank goodness for AA plus membership, which got my car from there back to Manurewa for free, although they took their time getting to me!!

Now all three Alfas of this blog are off the road! :(

I'm back... but the Alfa isn't!

I'm back in the blog world!

However in more disturbing news...

My Alfa is still not on the road. It needs exhaust repair and new front tyres before it will get the all important Warrant of Fitness.

Poor me has to drive the ever increasingly noisy subaru legacy.

Repaired!!

I forgot to tell you guys of my wonderful repair job on my wing mirror. Araldite works like a treat.

Oh yeah I got an 8 second 0 - 100 the other day.
