My best memory of the 145 isn't in France but in Sicily, we drove from Catania to a little bit past Messina in one doing an average of 150km/h. When we got there, I looked at the odometer, it had around 230,000 kilometers. That thing ran like new. But, that's a different story for a different time.

On holiday, en route to the Olympics, school, collecting Italian cars to bring home, or something else?
Sometimes because so many of the bbers are North American based, not excluding you, of course, we, as a general population, forget that culture, region, lifestyle, values, etc. contribute to how others view Alfas, their worth, their appeal etc. and their stories worldwide, which sometimes in trying to get or convey information or share stories appears to become somewhat of a contest or dispute many times based on a different level of communication skills, not speaking the same language, jokes or inferences that do not translate well etc.
Overall, with the above sorted through there is an appreciation of how things may be perceived differently around the world and as a result learning or recognition of others opinions or thoughts are discovered, whether there is agreement or not. I have always found you to be cordial, accepting, and able to set aside what some others are not able to based on their narrow focus; it's nice to see you back and posting again.
Hope you are enjoying your time abroad as in the past.
