I'd forgotten about this find- lots of pics of familiar stuff as well as more unusual stuff we never really see over here.

For some reason they tend to be taken from the rear, rather than the front.

You're dead right about the rear end shots - bloody annoying and what a waste

Stunning. Judging by the steelies I'd hazard a guess that she's packing a carburated 1800 twin cam. That's a proper Alfa Romeo is that.

Thinking about it, the back end of that 90 looks kind of familiar...

The Alfa 90 was styled by John Cleese in 1983. It's a magnificent bit of eighties EuroTat that Alfa used to do so well. I love this era of Alfa - the plastic clad Sprints, the Arna Ti and the early 75. The combination of lunatic design and rubbish materials make them very special. Plus they drive and sound great. What's not to love?

Its strange the way these italians seem to take them from the rear!m0rris

75s are a great drive. Internally not so nice, particularly that stoopid handbrake. I also love the way a big car sits on little 14 inch rims. I once rolled up at this bloke's house and he said, "Nice car, I like Volvos too". GRRR.
