Twinspark Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 I've had the 75 sat on the road outside the house for a week now - it's booked in to have the bodywork damage done next week. Took the opportunity to do a bit of fettling, as Mrs TS was working this afternoon. Replaced the expansion tank (mine was cracking due to age), indicator stalk (wouldn't latch on right hand turns) and put my Nakamichi head unit back in it. I had to pick up a bit of shopping for a BBQ this evening - so hopped in the 75. The little shopping trip became a 60 mile amble around some of the lanes around here - popping in to Waitrose to get some Weißbier, too. Was a stunning day for it - and I still reckon the 75 looks amazing with its gleaming white paint in the sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasdrury Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 What kind of plate is it you've got on the Alfa? Northern Ireland..... IW is Country Londonderry registered. I only know cos my other half is Northern Irish and her parents have IW plate..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinspark Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Yup, it's a Northern Irish number, but done on a German pressed metal plate. Yes, I know it's not legal, but I think it suits the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4ttm4son Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Surely an Italian plate would suit it better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinspark Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 I couldn't find anyone making Wop plates when I looked. And their front plate size would be asking for a pull! I think they just look generic European. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
