I know there's a tapedeck in the 159 somewhere ... my dash tells me so! ;D
Can someone tell me where it is? :P :P

Just below and to the left of the choke lever.....you know, the thing you hang your handbag on! ;D
If its a radio cassette then it with the wireless in the dash, however if its a 8 track, because they are so large it is usually installed underdash with a 'hang on' arrangement, Colin.
Race tape over the rusty bits :)
The car doesn't come with a tapedeck! :o :o
This weird tapedeck message (first time), the occassional flashing odometer on start up, and a flat 2 year old OEM battery are the only issues we've had with this car! .... touching my wooden desk as I'm writing this!
I would never buy a 159, if it doesn't have a tape deck as it would make my PINK FLOYD tapes redundant, Colin.
Ha! ;D

Gee Colin - would that be another "Brick in the Wall". Sorry, couldn't resist. ::)
Thants a bit on the dark side ! (of the moon).
Maybe the tape deck is Obscured By Clouds :D
Slow day today, not much fish around .... :P
"It would be so nice" if I could "take it back" to the "time" of "the happiest days of our lives" when I got my first Alfa, "a new machine" that replaced my "mother" 's hand me down Swedish car. The two cars were like "apples and oranges".
The Alfa 33 had the superb "free four" boxer engine, but in Alfa's "momentary lapse of reason", mine only came as a single carburettor model, the Gold Clover Leaf model. "Green is the colour" I should have waited for, when they came in twin carb version. "In the flesh" the two models were "poles apart", 85bhp vs 105bhp.
"What do you want from me?" the little 33 screamed as I pushed the accelerator into "Interstellar Overdrive" to keep up with the 105's at my first driver training day. I had "high hopes" for my little car, but in the end I was "lost for words" as the fantastic rasp of that exhaust still "echoes" to this day.
But at least that Alfa came with a tapedeck! ;D ;D ;D

Sad, very sad!!
"Stop"! You're on "The thin ice". If you carry on like this I'll have you "On the run"...
