Steve H, you're a tw@

I may well be doing that with the Passat when I get back from my hols.

Oh no - just sold the GTM for £1600 and have already been considering an LPG car ( I work near a Morrisons - lpg @ 29p/litre)

I can feel the gravity pulling me in.........................

Well, there's obviously only one solution.

It's Alfa shaped. Has a 24v V6 and room in the boot for an LPG tank ;-)

Bugger, someone's just offered me one of the old TWR Jag XJR Sport things for it.

These Jag things any good?

What era? The old late 80s type one, V12?

I remember what you said about V12 Jag fuel consumption....

I think that's the plan to be honest.

Besides, there are some lovely Alfas about.....

Does it really matter ?

You're considering an Alfa after all, not like you're concerned with whether it will break down or not... :)

I've *never* had an Alfa break down in my ownership, and I've had about 8 of the bloody things.

In fact, I've never had a single major problem with an Alfa. I suspect this is why I'm after another one.

I killed my 33 16v, but that was very old and very abused :-)

I did have a clutch cylinder fail on a 75, but that can happen to any old car with a hydraulic clutch.

Other than that, utterly reliable.

You should buy lotto tickets. The odds of winning lotto are less than owning an Alfa and not having it break down.
