Title: Who owns the most Alfas?
Post by: Sheldon McIntosh on August 12, 2007, 11:29:11 PM
Interested to see who owns how many Alfas. 

When I joined the club (about 2 years ago)  I had just the one, and was happy with that, as far as I was aware my next car would be German.  I thought people were having a lend when they said that ALFA stood for Always Looking For Another.  I now own Two and a half Alfas and have already formed a plan to acquire my next one.

I thought about this today when a friend came along to a sprint day and joined the club, even though he doesn't own an Alfa.   "ha ha" I said, "you'll own one within 6 months".    Then I realised that an "acquaintance" had acquired 4 Alfas over the years.

Surely someone can do better than "only" 4 Alfas?

I have two also.  I know Evan & Fi have 4, I was talking to them about that just yesterday.

If you count non-runners Fi and I actually have 5 Alfas. 

- 1969 1750 GTV (in bits)
- 1976 Alfasud Ti (in the shed on the farm, where the 1750 GTV used to be)
- 1977 Alfasud Ti (the race car)
- 1985 Alfa 33 Ti
- 2000 156 Selespeed

Scott beats me easily.  What about Branko?  Doesn't he have like 17 GT Juniors?

Well Ed, look on the bright side, building up a new collection in WA will be fun!  Make sure you post the photos as you do it.
