...remember the 928S? I think that was a nice car. And a good engine.
Something from this century? The Cayenne, don't you think it's a beauty? (I'm joking obviusly)

It had its share of bugs... but like my Spider, when it ran right it was an extreme pleasure to drive. The way they corner so flat and hang on glued to the pavement is amazing. So I guess, the beauty of it's function made me grow to appreciate it's looks too. I'll never forget picking up an automatic transmission for a Volvo and the dealer brought it out to the parking lot and asked where my truck was... I pointed to the 914 and he looked on in disbelief as the front trunk swallowed that tranny and I took off. Fun, fond memories.

Yours is a really beautiful example. You obviously love and appreciate her.
Bravo.

The second and third are of the Spider at National Alfa Day 2006:

Thanks

Thanks for the compliments.

The 75 is a 2.0 Twin Spark Limited Edition. It is standard LE except for the wheels which are 15" Revolutions (an option on the 3 litres in the UK). The bumpers are correct for the car, as it is a very late TS.

The 156 is a 2001 2.0 Twin Spark Selespeed. It is my daily driver. I bought it 3 years ago when it ha 40k miles (64k km) and it now has 111k miles (179k km) on it.

Here are some more pictures:







At the famous Ace Cafe in London



This next one was taken at the top of the Saint Gottards Pass in Switzerland



And this one was on the Brunige Pass in Switzerland in April 2005
