I am looking at a used and tattered 2000 Alfa 156 that is being offered to me to buy. I took a trip to see it, it's a reasonable drive from me and of course, I am torn.
It's a 2000 1.8 Twin Spark, has been sitting for 2 years, and needs work. The right rear door is totaled, and the front bumper and fender/wing has damage. I understand that it is not a high spec car, and likely not worth much aside from it being here. Right hand drive, no a/c. (Ugh...) With a door, (sourced) and paint work, recon, I figure it will cost a couple grand to get it nice again, assuming no ugly stuff is bad under the hood. Has power front windows, 5 speed, nothing fancy.
To me, it's a $2000 car on a good day. Opinions?
Thanks for any input.
