HI I AM ALAN I LIVE IN STAFFORDSHIRE ENGLAND AND HAVE OWNED ALFA GTV/ GTV6,S FOR THE LAST 25 YEARS . HAVING OWNED 5 GTV,S AND 7 GTV6,S YOU COULD SAY THAT I AM A VERY SICK PERSON ! MY LATEST ONE IS A 1982 THAT WAS TAKEN OFF THE ROAD AND STORED IN A GARAGE IN 1992 ONLY RECENTLY BOUGHT BY ME. I AM SLOWLY TRYING TO BRING HER BACK TO LIFE THE FUEL INJECTION SEEMS TO BE A SLIGHT PROBLEM AT THE MOMENT BUT HEY HO IT KEEPS ME OFF THE STREETS AND I WOULD ONLY SPEND MY MONEY ON SILLY THINGS LIKE FOOD AND SO ON IF IT WAS NOT FOR MY LUST FOR ALL THINGS ALFA (ESPECIALLY GTV6,S) MY OTHER MONEY PIT BEING A LAST OF LINE 2005 ALFA 166 2.0 SO I ALSO KNOW ABOUT BIG DEPRECEATION

Nice looking 82 - looks like my 83 except for a few minor items. Sickness for sure, we once owned a 79 Sport Sedan, 89 Milano and the gtv6 for a period of about 9 years ... miss them all except the gtv6 which I still have

Welcome Alan.Glad to see this Alfa 'illness' is a worldwide phenomenon.
Don't feel alone,I am currently on my 4th GTV...
Yours looks great though.
I will not hesitate to spend money on my GTV6 but if it's for clothe's or food I think twice about cost.
