Alfa 156 bits
DIY Si - 3/6/08 at 04:02 PM

Right, I'll be getting my donor car at the week end and will soon have lots of bits I no longer need. Which is basically the whole car, minus engine and ecu/loom. Any one need any bits? It has a full black leather interior too, should you wish to upgrade your cloth version. All bits going cheap(ish) to fellow locosters.

Car is this colour should you need a door, bonnet or boot lid.

whats wrong with the alfa?looks straight from here and how much you pay for it?


DIY Si - 3/6/08 at 04:10 PM

Not too much wrong with it at all really. It failed it's MOT a few weeks back, needing a new tyre, a few bulbs and apparently, because I can't see it, some structural rust in the OSF wheel arch somewhere. Oh, and it's starting to go manky across the top of the windscreen too where it had a new screen, but the fitter messed it up and rubbed a lot of the paint off.
Paid the princely sum of £555 for it too, so not 100% locost, but not bad for a whole V6 Alfa.

I know, but the bloke who fitted the screen messed it up good and proper. It's bubbling across 2/3rdfs of the front edge of the roof. Hence the donor car price tag.

Best bit is I actually lost the Ebay auction for it too! It should have been more, but that's what my bidding ran out at. So I sent the seller an e-mail asking to keep me in mind, and guess what happens 2 days later?!

Nice purchase

Did u know that the roof isn't galvanised!! The rest of the car is....go figure.

Right, the car is now back at mine, so if anyone wants anything, just let me know! The only bits I'm keeping are the engine, bell housing, if separate, and the wiring bits for the engine. So the 6 speed box, for example, is up for grabs.

U2U sent.
