Who owns a gt jtdm on here ?

[Johnboy]

Morning peeps

I'm after feed back on the gt's . Been reading loads on them . And like most Alfas some people have loved them and some have had nightmares the latter are properly not alfa nuts like us and don't understand the loverly electronics I think this is the only newish alfa I really want apart from an 8c of course
My aim is, if the loan shark lets me , is the cloverleaf q2 .if I'm going to do it. Do it right
Colours I would love black to go with the 33! But how does the red hold up these? Ie pink
Any info would be great guys
Cheers johnboy

not owned a GT mate, but may well do soon. had plenty of jtd experience though and mostly good.

colour wise i like black but it's a pain to live with day to day as you prob already know!

i don't think red suits the GT for some reason, odd being an alfa and all. just something doesn't look right there's one local to me and everytime i see it it looks a bit ill suited for some reason, can't say why

cloverleaf models hold value very well, which i guess is no bad thing, it'll still be worth something in a couple of years time!

other than the lack of rear doors i'd have got one by now, just a pain tilting seats to let the kids in/out.

but lovely cars though, loads of room especially with seats down for bigger loads. wish they'd have made 156 saloon seats fold down, i'd still have them if so

Morning Kev

Yeah agree , the red just doesn't look as good to me too, found two exactly the same bar the colour . But the black one is a grand more the coupe is no issue for me as no kids!! Plus the boot is basically the same size as the sportwagon so bonus for skiing and putting stuff in!

[lee16v]

Is the 156 going then John or are you just adding to the clan?

Black is cool as but I couldn't bring myself to have another as you know what a PITA it is to keep clean. Go silver......

[Johnboy]

Morning lee

Yes the 156 will going.sadly its a bit of a shed ,needs to much doing to it now .so time for a new car

[Joe1968]

John .. when you say the 156 is going .. do you mean selling or being scrapped?

[Johnboy]

Selling hopefully

[Joe1968]

Oh ...

I was going to ask for some bits ...

[Johnboy]

Well it looks like I'm leaning towards a red gt now, over black . But that mite be the fact it's a grand cheaper

[Johnboy]

Well the loan has been approved just got to wait for the money to drop in to my account . Not going to say which gt I've got my eye on, as I don't want to give it the kiss of death and it sells

[Johnboy]

Deposit pay !
Off to Bournemouth next Saturday

[Fetta GTV]

That's not red

[Johnboy]

Yes , that one sold and another I phoned today had just taken a deposit.
So went for this. Fsh 36300 miles on a 57 plate

[Fetta GTV]

Looks great black
There are too many red Alfa's anyway

[Johnboy]

this is true can't wait to get my hands on. Then some little mods to the exhaust and filter
