Default My daily hack

Even though I've always been a ford enthusiast and owned many, in recent times I've become a sucker for Italian rubbish. The days of having a fast expensive car are now a thing of the past now that family life is priority, plus I haven't got space for a 3rd car. This is my sensible daily driver/something to tinker with. It's a 2005 Alfa Romeo 147 1.6 twin spark packing a whopping 120bhp! These cars are so under estimated and don't get the credit they deserve. The twin spark engine is superb and loves to rev. In my ownership I've resprayed it pearl white, fitted uprated shocks and springs, drilled and grooved discs and upgraded brake fluid, new suspension arms and soon I'll be fitting a stainless steel exhaust system and pre-cat delete, braided brake hoses and a remap. Here's some pics.
