Long Time Admirer Getting Serious

[octinum 0]

Hi people,

 

I'm new here but I have been an Alfa fan for some time now. I admit I'm not as hardcore as most of you are, not very much into pre-1990's models but I'm seriously considering a 156 Sportwagon Mk. 1 with Selespeed transmission. Since I live in Turkey; where Alfas are not much popular and station wagons are even less popular; wish me luck for a Selespeed one.

 

Anyway, hope to have good time here with you.

Thanks for the warm welcome. This seems to be the "Alfa Spirit"; remember the Alfa Romeo Challenge of Top Gear?

 

@mokicat: Yep, its a "GNU Gnu". I'm an engineer and an enthusiast of open source software, hence the avatar.

 

@WTI: Maybe in the future, as the second car. I need cargo space for my activities (do it yourself projects, cycling etc.) so the only valid option is the Sportwagon as the sedan doesn't have folding back seats.

Sportwagon is the way to go!
