I remember when I traded my Alfa Romeo Sprint. I told them that it didn’t like starting more than once or twice without the battery being recharged. Somehow I think it used to drain the battery rather than charge it when driven. But then the Italians never really worried about dodgy electrics in their cars. As I dropped it off and was driving away in the new car I saw them pushing it out the back. I was so pleased to get rid of it but it sounded fantastic. Not as good as the current ride though. Last of the air cooled ones with all the bells and whistled except for the turbo engine.
Of course it’s easier to have one of these when you don’t have a family etc, because it is not a very practical car and is really only a weekender for me.
I had an Alfa Romeo GTV6 Twin Turbo that looked so damn sharp with the spolier package, custom rims, etc…But it was also constantly screwing up like yours with the wiring and stuff, and then you gotta take it to an i charge double because i know Italian cars mechanic, and he never fixes it right because he wants you coming back, not enough Italian cars around for him to work on i guess
Now i have a shiny black BMW, with the spoilers, open top, and just added a chip that makes it go even faster, so i can drive 300km an hour, instead of my customary 200km
I’m eyeing a black Ferrari Testarossa convertible for my next car, ever since i started watching those Miami Vice reruns, even though Sonny Crockett drove a black Ferrari Daytona Spider in the show, those are very rare, so the Testarossa will have to do, man, i sound spoiled.
