In the late 70's I drove a Giulia 1.6 that I had bought second hand.
I was so pleased with that car that 2 years later in 1979 I decided to buy its successor.
The Alfetta 1.6
The first and only new car I ever bought.
What wonderful cars Alfa's are has already been described in detail here.
What stayed with me the most were the fantastic brakes on the Alfetta.
But...!!!
7 years later; 1986 I had to jack up the car to replace a flat tire.
And came to the conclusion that the jack went up but the Alfetta did not.
The jack just went through the chassis beam.
And that's where my Alfa adventure ended.
Such a pity.
