Same here with insurance. €1100 to renew the 406 (pricks :mad:) or €829 for the 520i, both fully comp
The kits can be expensive but the superflex Strongflex kit isn't and having driven a V6 with that very kit I can say it handled very well!
I always get those 2 mixed up. It's strongflex you need
You'd need the engine out anyway, although some reckon you can tilt the engine and do it that way still in the bay.... I'd have it out though. Don't know what tools you'd need for the 2.4 but they shouldn't be too dear.
I'm on that forum
that thread is about a JTD SW that went to some chap in Galway, then went to Cork. Seems to be remapped. 04C26738
Reading a few bit's on it be done in just with a mount off and tilting. Sounds alright

The reg is written on that thread, that's an old thread from Jan last year btw. Is it....

I find it is better since they done that update. If I clicked a vine on the old way it would open up by itself and you would lose where you were on the home page and would have to scrowl all the way back down again, used to annoy the hell out of me.0 -

Heading home on the R132 through Drogheda yesterday and a Micra with a huge Russian notice in the window passed us. The feckin' thing took up most of their rear window- rear visibility would have been severely hampered.0 -

I can't begin to describe how bloody annoying it is! 40km/h on a road that has a limit of 100km/h and not 1 chance to safely overtake the whole journey!!!!
It is by far the most annoying thing out there MM. I have on occasion wanted to pit manoeuvre them into the ditch for everyones sake 0 -

I don't know for me Nissan Qashqai have taken over Micras as my most hated car on the road.
The girlfriends is going to be looking at getting her first car in a couple of months, and since were moving further away from my job etc the chances are her car will become the first car and my car the second car in terms of usage. So would want something that is not painful to drive.
Was looking last night she wont be spending a lot what are the old 147 Alfas like? or the 1.9 diesel Alfa engine like? Going through Carzone Alfa really seemed to stand out. She wants a five door easier for baby seat and something not to big.
Might try and convince her to for this reckon I could handle being sat in this.

I love the look of those GT's and that 1.9 lump is very reliable. But..........(why do I always have to put a but in my Alfa posts:o ) the ride is supposed to be very stiff (some say harsh even) so take one for a spin before you go looking to buy one.
They also suffer from failing suspension bushings but good aftermarket stuff is available.0 -
