Hello from Melbourne AUS

Post by 50/50 »

Hi there,

I am from Melbourne, Australia, and I am the proud owner of a 75 .Spark in Alfa Rosso red.
Prior to this car, I was driving around in a 33 1.5 for the best part of 3 years and felt that it was time for a suitable upgrade. At first, I was considering going for either a 33 1.7 IE or 33 1.7 16V (a logical progression from my 33 1.5 I guess), however, having driven my dad's 75 (also T.Spark, and also Alfa Rosso red), I decided that it had to be a 75. Initially, I was considering a 3L 75, but I went for the T.Spark because I haven't any experience with Alfa V6s and intended to
use the car as my daily driver.
After an excruciatingly long 1 month wait from when I first saw this car (RWC, getting the car reg'd, etc), I now use this car as my daily ride to prowl the streets and I couldn't be happier.

Happy Revving, :D

Welcome to the board. That's a pretty immaculate looking 75. If you need any parts I'm breaking a '87 75 and I'm in the SE suburbs.

Cheers, Scott

That's a nice machine. I wish we had that version in the U.S.A.

Beautiful car.
The T. Spark 75s are really an amazing drive.

I once did the 33 to 75TS transition too (I had a 1.7IE and my TS also had GTV6 rims on it!).

I'm sure you'll enjoy the 75, as being RWD with an LSD, it can do things that the 33 can't :twisted: and being sensible, is a much better engineered car and more enjoyable to drive (not just when sliding around wet roundabouts - although that is good too).
