My Alfa Spider's speedo has broken and the shop wants more to fix it then a
new Autometer speedometer would cost. Has anyone replaced an Alfa speedo
with an after market unit? Any suggestions?

Just bought a 1997 P 146 1.8TS without seeing it (I know, but the old 'must
have Alfa' mist descended on me). Got it cheap enough ?1000 plus tax. It's
champagne with black velour. What differences are there between this and my
old 146 1.6TS please guys?

A friend/neighbor acquired a '79 Fiat Spider a few months ago (October), for next-to-nothing.
Body in fair shape (no GAPING holes), interior nice, engine not running...
supposedly some "electrical trouble." She thought it would be a bit of

I'm due 2 new tyres on the front of my 147 1.6 soon and would appreciate
some advice.
It's currently fitted with Goodyear Eagle NCT5's which give great grip and
feel but I'd like some more life (16K miles and down to 2mm) and they are a

Any help or leads most welcome.

Went to see the guy that used to look after all my cars today.  Although

sell on.

Me and my 146 live in France and for some reason the size of tyre we require
195 x 15 x 55 is double the cost of a similar tyre with a profile of 50 or

Would anyone know any reasons why I shouldn't fit a different profile tyre.

Just received this in my inbox - sounds plausable but i'm not holding my
breath. Interesting concept though!.

Just had car MOT'd, it passed !! but on checking the air con for me there
was no gas and when they tried to fill it up there was a hissing from
behind the dash. Any ideas or help for a cheap repair appreciated. I am
pretty handy with the tool box.

Just the thing for you:

It happens to the best of us, I ran out of gas. But after a bit of a walk I
put in some fuel, to find the Fuel Injector light remains on and the car
will not run well. With the right amount of thotlle I can get a good smooth
1000RPM, but any more throttle and the car revs between ...

Just bought a 2001 Y reg 2.0 156 that some boy racer has put a
well-stupid gear knob in.
How do I go about removing this, and replacing it with either a
"classy" version, or possibly one of Alfa's own?

I'm in the process of looking for a replacement for a very high milage
VW Scirocco, and finding that there are so few cars around with any
semblance of style (and that I can afford), that the 156 and the Jag
X-type, have come up as the only options. One of the most important
