Hey Solmanic, good taste in cars. If i had the money i would sell my '94 Range Rover and get a Defender Xtreme!

Is it pretty economical with the turbo diesel?

Thanks.

Without wishing to hijack the thread - the TD5 gets 9l/100km average. And like my siganture says, I think a classic Alfa Coupe and a new Landrover Defender are a well balanced garage. I face a dilemma each and every morning

theres been a change in the picture of my 74 spider, there was a tree cut down, the basketball goal is gone, the boat is gone, and the 69 spider under the tarp is now on the ground, my son Dan got it back together enough to take it off the stands.

I start with the base engine from AFLA 75 Turbo 1.8, now are only the piston and the valves are still original.

Peter,

I notice in your list of previously owned Alfas, you include a 76 Sud Ti and an 87 Alfa 33. Was that in Texas? I never knew that they sold Suds and 33s in the USA.

Very nice. Looks to be a euro spec Alfetta GTV 2000. I did not realize AR made the 2L that late. Would really love to see engine pics of this car. Do you have any?
