After almost 2 years without a Cloverleaf badge on the drive, I've got the urge for another Alfa.
So early heads up of my black 13 plate Magnetic with quads and red leather that will appear on the market soon. Low mileage 23k, with full service history, and no mechanical problems whatsoever...

Own 2 Z's. A 12 plate and a 13 plate.
Touch wood, aside from a replacement battery on the 12, not cost a penny.
Managed to jack up both several times myself with no problems after following the advice on here.
On a positive note, getting a reputable electrician to fit a new consumer unit/fuse box and provide a survey/certificate isn't a massive job.
Sold my house in August, and the fuse box/consumer unit was a bit dated and not meeting latest earthing requirements. Fully replaced with a new modern...
