I have a thing for white GTVs so it figures that of the three we currently own, none are white. Perhaps one of these days....
I thought Biacospino was called Hawthorn White, oh well whitethorn sounds better!

This is one fast growing thread!

I actually kinda like the idea that it was availalble, probably because I joined rather early on......Now that we have over 10000 members, it is nice to be the one an only just Peter, or Bill, or Alex

Thumbs up

"The Voice": It's a phrase the Italians (well, the ones that live around Venice anyway) use to describe the unique and glorious sound of an Alfa engine at full throttle.

Obviously mine doesn’t take a rocket scientist to decipher It is easy enough to remember, simple, and to the point I’m also sure the fact that I don’t act like a 46 year old man “according to my wife” when I see one contributes somewhat.

Really cool thread!!!

Hmm, was tired of having a nic that was used by other ppl aswell. So years ago I heard of a fire at the Mt Stromlo observatory in the Stromlo forest in Australia. The name sounded cool, so I took it as my own

On the adopting a child or a dog, and keeping the name - same with my race car. The guy who raced it before be, used to cheat by getting touring car tyres, (wich was illegal in his class), so it got the name 'Naughty Tyres'. Im not too fond of the name, but thats her name so she keeps it
