Hi Alfeee
I joined this forum yesterday

. I too have a 156. A 2003 JTS sportwagon, metallic light blue with black leather. Would have loved the tan leather interior but for some strange reason my other half didn't like the colour ?? Go figure.
Hope you enjoy the 156, as I reckon they really are a lovely car to drive. They feel so good on the road. The red instruments at night just gets me every time, plus with the Bose hi fi, let alone all the toys etc. And I have owned/driven Alfas for the past 20+ years.
Anyway, great to have you on board. I currently am not an AROCA member, since there is no Alfa club in Tassie. I used to belong to the Vic club but let my membership lapse since in effect at the time all I was getting back for my $$ was 4 magazines a year. I couldn't continue justifying the cost. I might re-join sometime in the future.
Cheers
Dave
