    I find myself listening to Today FM or iRadio for the most part, but I threw a tablet in the car recently so I'm letting that shuffle my music lately.

    Dublin radio stations are piss poor imo. To those who live to far to pick up frequencies from up here, your not missing out on much...

    Gave it a try. There was plenty of good music in the 90 but an awful amount of sh1te. They seem to play more of the latter.

    Think it depends on the time of day and DJ on to be honest. There are times when it seems to be a lot of Oasis, Blur etc... And then time ms of the day when you get Snap, D-Ream, 2 Unlimited.

    It's always time for MC Hammer though! :D

    First blue sky in a while. Where were you? Clear blue sky the past two days and today sunny with a fair bit of cloud cover.

    Well, just bought myself a new car. My very first Diesel and very first Alfa. I poped my cherry twice.

    Got a good deal on Alfa with only one owner from new 88k miles. Work done in the last month and all by my buddy mechanic, it was a local car:

    Clutch
    Flywheel
    Timing belt
    Water Pump
    New Wishbones up front and suspension overhaul
    New starter
    Fresh NCT and a lot of other bits done
    New EGR last year.

    It has few scratches and bumps, rear for lights will need to be replaced, a bit of rip in leather seats, but wont cost much to fix. All in all very happy. Now I know wtf Alfa owners talking about Alfa Romeo feel. That thing is just such an amazing place to be in. So its true, if you call yourself petrolhead - you have to own at least one alfa in your life. It might break my heart, who knows, but god it feels good, even with dirty diesel.

    Ill be honest - the thing damn shifts!!! I was shocked. Filling up full tank was so much cheaper too lol.

    Though I already see how much better and more refined this car would be with nice smooth petrol engine. Diesels are really rough in first gear.

    Oh, I am second owner of this car lol. One owner from Brand new. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,617 ✭✭✭ba_barabus


    I love those Alfa GT's. Well wear and drive it on at every opportunity.

    Despite my recent issues my 159 is still my favourite car.

    Best of luck with the new wheels SH! An excellent choice from a neutral poster here :)

    Is she leather on the inside? Looks lovely!

    Neutral poster? What does that mean in these parts? :)

    Oh God yes, she is full leather, bose sound system, armrest, Cruise control etc. I think she is fully loaded.
    As said, there is a stitch gone in seats side. Its not even a rip actually. Just need someone good with needle to stich it together. :)
    I actually have to have car with leather unless it's bangornomics. For me it's a must extra. To this day I still don't understand how can someone order BMW or Mercedes and don't check "leather, bitches, now!" box.
