Just made final payment on my 147 - I wonder how long I can last before the
showroom beckons!

As long as it takes to look at pictures of the new 159, 149 when it
arrives, GT, Brera.
I suggest you close your eyes or your bank will later send you a
letter.

I'm in the same position. My 03 plate 156 sold last week and I am browsing
the forecourts already. Not even been a month yet.

I'm thinking of steering clear of Alfa's though. My 03 plate didn;t really
have a problem, but when it did- boy did it cost me (clutch for example) ...
and the money i lost on it was ridicilous. I just managed to break even when
I sold, and I put down a 6 grand deposit when I bought it...

I'm liking the crysler crossfire but i've heard horror reports about them
too.
Maybe I will stretch to a nearly new Lotus... who knows. I could definetly
get an older Porsce Boxster - say 2-3 years old or somthing like that ...
hmmmmm :)

What you got your eye on...

Not sure what to go for TBH - come the summer I'm going to be perusing the

149 pics I've seen look good, but who knows how long until it arrives?
