As started in another thread ages ago - here is the info for you lot as promised
"Hi Russell,
I have one in the system at the moment, just waiting for some finer details.
Its Silver, 78,00 miles and looks immaculate.
Just let two others go, not quick enough to say yes to be honest, a Black narrow body and a dark red wide body.
The price for the silver one will be around £3,950.00 possibly a bit more depends on how I bring it over, as I said said it looks great.
If that’s what you are looking for I will keep you informed, hoping to know by he weekend but you know what these mainland Europeans are like!"
"Hi Russell,
Have a few more details on this car no.
Mileage as I said around 78,000.
Cambelt changed at 56,000 and various bills for service.
I will look to bring this car over around the end of Feb if you are interested, let me know as I may well keep this one for myself otherwise.
I am not a dealer but it seems I have set up various contacts who keep me informed of 155 specials that are for sale on the mainland and have various contacts for collection.
Really looking for a 155 GTA but they are very very scarce."

thats a lot of money for one of those.
think he means a 156 GTA, not a 155 GTA - GTA's arnt that hard to find - probably 10x easier to find than a 155Q4

the Q4 is a rare car, isnt it a 2.0 turbo 200bhp 4x4? not like the 2.0 turbo GTV's you can get b ubasically a lancia integrale with a saloon body.
i thought the GTA was only the race car on the 155? they would be mega bucks. Jamie - are you getting your 155's and 156's mixed up?

Yup, the 155 GTA was a race special, never officially available as a road car. You'll *really* struggle to find a widebody 155 Q4, there are only 2, maybe 3, registered in the UK. One of which has been written off and rebuilt.... so you won't be wanting that one! You might find one in Europe, though. However, I can't see the point in a Q4 myself. The oily bits are 100% Lancia, so they're not really an Alfa, IMHO. But if you want an Integrale without the rust and shell cracking issues, then I suppose you'd be wanting a Q4. I'd love a 75 Turbo Evoluzione rather than any of the 'special' 155s. However, this has *huge* appeal....  Haven't ever seen a 75 wagon, let alone a Turbo Wagon. |

Wow thats super cool, never seen one of those before ever.
You can also get an alfa 75 turdblowa (non-evolution) on the continent, there are a couple on french ebay at the moment, only a 1.8 150 bhp though. maybe you could crank up the boost a bit, but if you want 150 bhp a twinspark is better I reckon.

Well, you say that.... however, those in the know say the Turbo is a much more exciting way of getting 150bhp....

I'd luv a turbo evo, though I'd change the wheels straight away (horrid). reported bhp figures for the turbo evo range from just 175bhp to 230bhp. personally I'd luv a 75, with a 3.7 24v Glenwood motor !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just need to persuade the missus to not have any holidays for a few years !!!!! |
