twisted_pr 16 Report post Posted March 21, 2014 "Bella" is an Italian word in its own right with several different meanings. In this context it translates as either "beauty" or perhaps more appropriately "sweetheart". And they ain't wrong! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bigdar 62 Report post Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) "Bella" is an Italian word in its own right with several different meanings. In this context it translates as either "beauty" or perhaps more appropriately "sweetheart". And they ain't wrong! Bloody fool twisty ! It's simply because Bella Emberg famously owned a comprehensive collection of alfas. And it's said that her first child was conceived on the bonnet of an early Giulia (the bonnet never survived the experience and was subsequently replaced ) in a pub car park near Cleethorpes. There may be small inaccuracies in this post though. Edited March 21, 2014 by Bigdar 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyblo5 17 Report post Posted March 22, 2014 Normally I call her Monica (after Ms Bellucci) as she has great body, fantastic cures, goes like a rocket but is very high maintenance and prone to the odd breakdown. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rusty wings are the most annoying part even more annoying are the price of the damm things. New disks and pads this week and a cv boot.

Angelom 7 Report post Posted March 22, 2014 Wings? Front panels? New paintjob in sight too? You will shit yourself if you see what we pay for parts in SA. If shipping wasn't so expensive I'd import all my parts from that side Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
