Woody, the v6 and RWD is the perfect marriage I'm my Alfa lust book. Also you could drop in the 3.2 GTA unit with now issues too. I recon a 75 v6 will be worth peanuts too.

Ok I am off to have a butchers.

Space is also an issue, like my women, the wife has told me I have to operate a 'One in, one out' policy.

One in, one out, so annoying isn't it!
I can't complain with two toy cars though...I guess?!!

Talking about the 75 and V6, always liked the SZ, just a shame for me it's a 2 seater, they could have made it a 2+2 though, it's an empty space behind the seats. The other thing 200 BHP or so, compared to the Maser, sounds a bit underpowered today, don't know how much they weigh though.
Cheers.

I've yearned after one of those since they came out. I still have the original Car magazine article kept in a drawer. It is a shame they never made it 2+2, I presume it must have been some homologation expediency.

They were always criticised, even when new, for being a little slow, something like 7 secs 0-60, but gripped like a limpet.

Back on topic:

Nothing wrong with a 33 at all. I loved my Aflasud Sprints and always thought the 33 was an elegant evolution of that line. When you compare it to the Escorts and Astras of the time the metalwork is just so beautifully tailored. Like a fine suit.

Now that is what I call a track toy. Your backside will be eating the seat before you get to the second corner. Barking!
