    Yep :)

    Alfa Romeo wouldn't get him to design cars after the 164 and Peugeot 405 looked far to similar....

    I love the look of the Alfa 164, but i cant figure out why:confused:

    I love square, boxy late 80s cars but I always prefered the 166.... Just me though!

    Strangely enough, im not a big fan of the 166, the proportions of it look 'wrong' to me somehow:confused:

    But that opinion changes regularly:pac:

    the fella who bought my vectra used to own this van (it was totally standard when he owned it)

    the day he bought my vectra he sold this at the same time, i seen the vans current owner hand out afaik €1700 for it with the clutch slipping. even with the clutch replaced and full service done its hardly doubled in price? specially after being butchered with lowering springs, balck wheels etc.

    I like cleaning cars. Something about a clean car makes me smile. Just spent 2 hours cleaning both our car's interiors.
