Does this mean you're becoming a 164 Guru also? Maybe it'll be safe to tackle all of the electric problems on the 164 now!
Wheels on the 75 look quite nice, are they 16's?

15", Ex 2001 156. If I can find another set at the same price I'll get them for the 164. Damn, can't find the pic of a 164 same colour with these wheels. Just saw it on the BB recently.

Craig, I was thinking back to when my dad had a 164, there were a few quirky electrical problems.
Shouldnt be too bad finding those wheels for a good price if they came stock on an Alfa

Sharp! Especially that 75, although I'm sure the 164 will be just as sharp soon.

Now that you have a 75 and a 164, which do you think is better looking? I personally like the look of the 75 more, although the 164 shape is very nice. Some people prefer the 164 just because of the fact that it is designed by pininfarina.

Not going to answer that, Alfa's have feelings you know. And if you hurt those feelings they sulk.

True. Put some new bits on the 164 today. I had to leave the 75 in the garage with the door shut so it didn't get jealous.

75's and 164's
My 75 departed a few years ago and now I have two 164's and I make sure to never favor one over the other. They are like two children, the S is the more athletic one and the L is the sensible and reserved one. Equaly important and equaly cherished.
