My Alfa Romeo Spider is for sale:

You know, just in case you want something slightly less practical than a bike :)

Nice motor. I used to have a GTV V6. Loved it but totally impractical. Glws

Very nice - always fancied one of those, but having two Spiders could be considered as greedy (I also own a 1980 Lancia Beta Spider).

Great cars. I never found out what the V6 would be like in a Spider.

And Mango.. no that's not greedy at all!

Too much power for a fwd car. Even with a q2 diff you had to be extremely gentle with the throttle and couldn't really get the power down in a bend.

Awesome sound though. The best sounding car I've owned and the best sounding V6 ever produced.

Blimey, sold it already. Probably means I didn't ask enough for it!

They do sell quite quickly. I had a "sud" back in the 80's when they rusted away over a weekend if it rained, put me off ever owning another.
Yours looks very good for an 02 :)
