Watching it now. If you watched Top Gear, you really did miss the best game of tennis of all time. -- SteveH 'You're not a real petrolhead unless you've owned an Alfa Romeo' www.italiancar.co.uk - Ducati 750SS - Hongdou GY200 Alfa 75 TSpark - Alfa 156 TSpark - B6 Passat 2.0TDI SE

Makes me wonder why I've never owned one for the thrill every morning.

My Passat has failed to start more often than any of the Alfas. > Did you mention your brakes went off during your track day? Yes, they do. Mostly because they're 1970s brakes on a car with 1990s performance..... Easily sorted with uprated pads and fluid, though. Bear in mind the cars they bought were utter sheds - if Clarkson's 75 had been a decent one, it would have been worth anything from �2k-�4k - a 400 quid shed on its last legs is better for comedy value, though. -- SteveH 'You're not a real petrolhead unless you've owned an Alfa Romeo' www.italiancar.co.uk - Ducati 750SS - Hongdou GY200 Alfa 75 TSpark - Alfa 156 TSpark - B6 Passat 2.0TDI SE |
