Glad the 180 has worked out well, I'm thinking of taking a trip up to take the Alfa for a run.. Problem is if I do, I'll want to bring it home with me now!

I found another beastie I'm tempted in, the Alfa at the garage is a GT, but I quite like this one now:



A bit 'boy racer' maybe, but it is pushing 170bhp from a 1.9 derv! (Something you don't get with a ZS!!)

Ya see, that's why I'd never sell a car on ebay!

I bought my Prelude on ebay for £850, sold it less than a year later for £2800 on Pistonheads!

Cars never get their full value on ebay, selling is a bad idea, buying on the other hand is great as you can get some stonkingly good deals!

That car would have easily sold for £3600+ if put on Autotrader, yeah it may have taken a few weeks to shift (instead of 7 days), but the difference in return is shocking!
