I just think Alfa's have moved with the times, it's quite common to see Italian men with pink jumpers draped over their shoulders carrying a manbag these days.

Not sure how our resident Italian cross-dresses though??

Gingham?

Hey, last year pink jumpers were in fashion.

Old Alfas are masculine. New ones are poncy and built for gays and girls.

I really need a new car. My policy is that a car gets you from A to B so as long as it starts and stops properly, I don't care what it looks like or what it is. No idea where a 15-year old Cavalier with dents, faded paint and 130,000 miles on the clock fits on the gay scale but it's probably quite high on the penniless chav scale.

Mind you, if I'd put money towards the car I wouldn't have such a nice set of golf clubs...

That's why people buy the TT, it looks the part, but drives like a passat.

You could say that about almost all modern mainstream cars these days, I was reading 'Which Car' magazine last night and in the sports car section they highly rated the 'VW Eos' as it was easy to live with but marked down the 'Honda S2000' saying "Not everyone wants a car with a 9000rpm racing engine under the bonnet" Its the sports car section FFS!!

Mine was involved with a fender-bender. Not sure if that counts.
