I had a brilliant 3 years with a V6 TB that I imported from France,
but I never managed to get much more than 26mpg. the left hand drive
cars offer great value compared to the 2.0 TS

saw one on offer at less than 5k at
http://www.alfalink-cars.com/gt_gtv.html
I was very tempted to follow it up but I do too many miles and now I
have a little person to worroy about too!
