Twinspark Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Not at all. I have a white Alfa 75 and have been seriously considering a Martini stripe kit for it for many years. One day I'll bite the bullet and order one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Martini colours/stripes only work on Lancias for me I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxyboy Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 It's not wrong but unless it's a track at it will look naff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biscuits Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 it would be more wrong to like this: Pair Of Cute Curly Universal 3D Car Headlight Eyelashes Accessory Vinyl Sticker | eBay (have actually seen a red Polo WITH A BLOKE driving with these shockers fitted!)

eldavo69 Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 In the cold light of day I'm not so sure! Maybe if I build a Turbo track slag at some point then I'll go for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipex Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Exactly, now this is a proper example of a good looking car - BTW, the 155 is about as far from a 75 as you could get! wrapping a 75 in 155 Martini colours would be a travesty! This is the only acceptable decal pack for a 75 - Or as you happen to own a white one, this would be acceptable- Preferably with the wide arches too!

Tipex Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Better balance than an old M3, lighter (probably), track proven, tuneable, what's not to like! Wonder where I can find a 2.5 turbo V6 engine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder where I can find a 2.5 turbo V6 engine... Cough…….Cough…splutter…splutter……Now hold on there one cotton picking minute...Which old M3? If you are talking about the E30, then I think not. Sorry to disagree but the E30 M3 (if that's what you are referring to) will take the 'Pepsi Challenge' with pretty much any car on balance. Especially on the track.

Especially on the track. Lol, it was a jibe aimed Mook as he's most likely buying an E36 as a track toy going by his recent thread. Love the E30 M3 BTW, but in terms of balance? Can't see it bettering the Alfa with it's gearbox mounted at the rear for near perfect weight distribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E30 M3 would I'm sure, handle better, be faster etc etc, but balance? As in weight distribution front to rear? How can it be? E30's are famous for having light back ends, the engine and gearbox are both up front, whereas the Alfa has the engine up front, and the transaxle gearbox at the back.

Twinspark Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 The problem with sticking the gearbox where the boot should be is that you get the worst gear change this side of a 1960s Polski Fiat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patently Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Both would suit the Caterham perfectly, if they fitted. Especially the lashes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
