    Had exhaust made, ivestigated Tubi & Alfa guys in North London etc & was shocked at prices, had this one made for £400 centre section back, sounded great & spat flames on overrun...lol! Wheels are also non standard, hated Teledials so changed them & then thought....I'm going in the wrong...

    Autofficina

    Autofficina guy is called Elias. They've just done a cambelt service on my 3200, twas a rather large bill & after lots of pleading poverty, it was still £1800, but my car is transformed, they are a nice bunch & I'd recommend them, but yes their vehicle prices area bit on the high side, but at...

    I would die for this GTV

    £8k for a 2000 GTV albiet a 3.0 with a nice exhaust.... If you are going down the Alfa route, my suggestion is a 147GTA I had one for about 8 months..... never stopped laughing :)

    3200 Cambelt Change.... Just general gabbling

    Hello all, Have finally been reunited with my 3200 after 3 weeks away in the middle of summer (just what I needed) having a Cambelt Service & my throttle bodies refurbished. It is a truly transformed car... but for £1800 it bloody well should be. Its much more tractable feels smoother & on...

    Wanted: Gransport Wheels & Larini end pipes please for a 3200GT

    Did see BennyD's post & saw the v-short vid, but it did not do it for me, my 3200 came with a set of new stainless sports pipes, the sound is deep, but not quite right & do prefer my circular end pipes over the square ones. The sound of the Larini's on Conero's Gransport has me hooked (hope the...

    Wanted: Gransport Wheels & Larini end pipes please for a 3200GT

    Big queue then :( £1000 is acceptable but $4k...ouch! Also been looking for a while too, but now in earnest. Like Alfa's why are wheels not interchangeable between models? Have seen loads of Gran Turismo wheels up for grabs on fleabay. I may even try Maserati, I'm off to Italy in August, might...

    Wanted: Gransport Wheels & Larini end pipes please for a 3200GT

    Decided to keep the 3200GT for another year or until my wallet decides to open up far enough to accomodate a Gransport, so thought I might as well make it to my personal specification, so am scanning the horison for the following:- 1. A set of Gransport wheels, don't mind a few scuffs or...
