Title: 75TS
Post by: shane1750 on October 11, 2013, 07:55:50 PM
Hi All
       I'am trying to track down a 75TS I owned from 1992 till 2000
As far as I know it's in Victoria, rego number WXL228.
Anybody have any further information?

That is a fair amount of time to own a car, why did you sell it?

Are you able to contact the person you sold it too?

What is happening, the good memories coming back and you want to own her again?  ;)

Second best Alfa I ever owned .GTV 1750 S 2 being the first (owned 13 years)
My son is looking to upgrade the Volvo 240 he learnt to drive in, ie no longer hits things
and wants a manaul.

Fair enough, should have put him in a 75 to start with, try tracking your previous mistress down, if code no joy then there are heaps of 75 Twin Sparks for sale currently, actually if you can not track down the previous mistress, go V6, let your son feel the free revver with that howl  :)

Have you got ANY other info?
Colour?
Markings or stickers?
After market fittings [central locking remote or cruise control]?
Sunroof?
Wheels?

Who bought it?
How you sold it?

Edit: I ask because I got my Twinspark earlier this year but without plates/rego [I think it was. Might have been late last year]. The lack of basic information really doesn't motivate me to go check the VIN for an incredibly unlikely match.

Hey Shane, if you have the Vehicle Identification Number, check with Vic roads, to see if it is still currently registed in Victoria, Colin.

No, that's just the VIN check I ran on the VIN you posted earlier.
Mine is a 1990 and rego'd anyway.
