YO liveleak dudes..got my alfa gtv6 on the road.. bought it off a dude that had TOO many cars so it hasn't run for over 5 years...well i recommisioned it ..changed everything rubbery, a new rad, fuel lines and filter etc .i serviced it myself and got it tuned/timing done etc ect..
not got time to tell you all the jobs i have done, but i spent alot of time on it, and some money to!.. I think its cool looking, a bit oddball but the wheels set it off and are very unique on this model.. its not mint and still has jobs that need doing but its reliable and quick for its age..0-60 is about 8 seconds ...it really needs a good long run to blow out the crap and for the valves to bed in again.... just thought i would share with you what floats my boat anyway...
Sooo I made a movie to hear what it sounded like, and well the mic on the camera is a bit crap so i am a bit disappointed that it didnt sound as good as i know it does in real life.. but i hope you appreciate this 80s classic that in the uk has only 30 left of this exact model...and most are off the road....or bits of dust...
take it easy live leakers...Ed................and no it hasnt died yet...(before you say)

Good to see you or at least your shadow, again. You going to bring that baby with you on your next trip to the states? If you do, stop by and I'll show you how to drive on the CORRECT side of the road. ;)
Cheers, mate.

beauty!!
but why all those stickers?
I remember it was a nice car to drive, but gearbox was bad, like all Alfa's back then.
Not very fast. A Citroen BX 19 TRS was faster.
Don't worry about the smoke, quite normal, even when (almost) new.

@v12 yer your right gearbox is poor really needs to be tightened up..but they were quick for the year i cant see a 105bhp bx beating mine tbh, maybe he had the sprint?...and the stickers are tribute retro racing look i guess. its not mint and i wont pretend it is.

Great car mate.
I used to own a 156 2.5 v6 24v. With red leather interior. Loved that car to bits. Unfortunately I had major electrical issues with her. Wiring loom got burnt out in the end. Great rev happy engine though. think 0-60 was 6.9 secs
Great vid
