headlights are on and the radiator fan cuts in and I am waiting at traffic
lights or something, the Voltmeter goes from 14 where it ...

I'm looking at swapping my 1999 GTV 2.0 for a newer 3.0 model.
Does anyone have any advice regarding things to look out for when I go and
view the car?
Are there any inherent 'problems' with this model.

I am now the proud owner of an Alfa Romeo GTV 2.6 Tspark. It's a 1999 model
with 49000 miles on the clock. The car drives very well and make a beautiful
sound. I would like to keep it that way as long as possible.
I've just heared a few days ago that cam and timing belts should be ...

I have tried the FTP server that was suggested earlier, but it keeps getting

The car is at the dealer right now.
I gave him a copy of the faxes you send me. I must admit he looked very

As a 156 owner we all know that worn ball joints (on both upper &
lower arms) are quite common on the 156. Problem is made worse by the
fact that we can't change just the ball joint like in the older Alfas.
