    Yup. No choke control either. I was a master at manipulating the choke control on my Singer Vogue.

    My stepmom has a new mx5 (miata in the states). My overweight, bald father and I (slightly less overweight /bald) are driving with the top down through town. It's embarrassing.

    Is that a 4c? I've seen a matt black 8c round here a couple of times, a seriously beautiful car!

    Yeah, a 4C. Gorgeous. I haven't had the privilege of seeing an 8C yet.

    I've seen 4c being advertised at £60k
    Alfa first said they wanted to sell at £35k but came out a lot higher but £60k for a used one is crazy!

    One of the best looking cars of the modern era. Dramatic without being overstated, curvy without being bulbous. Gorgeous.
