Hello, I'm Back! - 24/01/2024 06:51

Hello peeps,
I've just rejoined the forum after 15 years away, I recognise some old names on here and things don't seem to have changed too much. I'm currently Coupe less but I hope to change that once I've sold my Alfa 156 GTA. I am so looking forward to being part of the community again. All the best. BTW, my avatar is in tribute to my last Coupe - a metallic red 20VT with tan leather. I'll try and dig out a photo.

Hi Alan, welcome back to the forum smile

It's quieter nowadays than when you were on here last mainly down to reduced ownership and fewer coops remaining but the challenge is still strong to keep as many as possible on the road.

Good luck with the hunt!

Hello Alan

You may have seen that the club newsletter is coming back.

Your experiences finding a car might be worth telling us about ?

Best wishes

That sounds interesting, could be a reason to join the club. Has this been announced on the forum?

Yes, Edinburgh mentioned it earlier today.

It's in a message further up the tables

Indeed, but it's posted in the Members' section.

16-20 was resurrected after a few years' intermission and produced in October last year.

Hi Jamie

I’ve trying to work out how to contact you for a long time, but not finding the forum overly user friendly for a Luddite like myself!

Anyway, long story short - I was the original owner of your Coupe! It was my company car in 1998-2001. My colleague had the matching silver car - R833 CGP.

It was an amazing car, loved it dearly and glad to see it’s still on the road.

Regards

Mat

A small world Mat, have a read of my restoration thread if you want to see what I've been doing

Cheers Jamie

Hello Mat

Have you seen the video of Misha and Jamie thrashing YOUR car around the Nurburgring ?
If not, I'm sure that Jamie will give you the link.

It's pretty amazing
