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,
Hello from Melbourne AUS

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 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).

Cheers, Scott
