New car arriving soon, so it's time to wave goodbye to my lovely Alfa.

This car has been maintained fastidiously by me over the last 18 months of ownership, I have spent £3k on the correct maintenance and some modifications to eradicate the known niggles these cars have. It's a stunning car in Alfa red - the design still looks fresh and different; it's a head-turner.

Alfa 159 TI 20V JTDM
6-speed manual
September 2009/59 plate (currently on a private reg which I will remove this week)
60k miles
Full main dealer and respected indie service history, with receipts for all work carried out in my ownership. Last serviced in late August 2015.
MOT to November - I will happily have the car MOTd before sale
Full black leather; heated front sports seats with red Alfa Romeo logo
Double-DIN touch screen Pioneer head unit with sat nav, Bluetooth, HDD, CD etc.
Rain and light sensors
19” 10 Spoke Alfa TI Alloys
Brembo brakes (330mm fronts), red calipers
Sports multifunction steering wheel
Electric heated door mirrors
Satin chrome kick plates
TI brushed chrome interior trim
Electrochromatic rear view mirror
Full automatic dual zone climate control

Maintenance
Cam belt and water pump changed in August 2014 - no need to change until 2019
Auto Lusso front lower arm polybush replacement. Read here and watch the video to see the benefit http://www.autolusso.co.uk/powerflex.html
EGR valve deleted, swirl flaps removed, with manifold welded and inlet manifold removed and media blasted to remove carbon deposits. No cold start issues ever again!
New crankshaft pulley (common issue) and aux belt fitted July 2015
Custom remap by ProAlfa in July 2015. 247.4BHP and 446.9lb/ft, up from 209.6BHP and 341.4lb/ft. ProAlfa have never seen a 2.4 make its factory claimed power before - testament to the work carried out by Auto Lusso the year before.
Wheels properly refurbed in August 2015 - stripped, kerb rash repaired and powder coated.

This car has been fantastic to own. It handles well due to the bush upgrade, goes like stink and still gives me high 30s mpg around town and 50+ on a run. It is freshly serviced and needs no money spending on it. Bodywork is in excellent condition, with no dents or rust anywhere. It has a couple of stone chips on the front, but that's to be expected on a used car.

It stands me over £15k from purchase 18 months ago and the work I've had carried out to make it one of the very best. I'm offering it to forum members for £9k - an absolute steal!

Please PM me with interest, questions etc.

Blimey I'd have that like a shot if it turns out I have sell another ex-MAF car. And it wasn't red.

I've narrowed my search down to a 2.4 159 if I have to sell the 3200gt and there are a few about, but nothing as good as that, for that price.
I'm still hopeful that work will fund the Maserati, so good luck with the sale, but not too much...

It's available only on here this week and then on general sale from some point over the weekend. I want it gone soon as my new car arrives in a few days. It's the best Alfa I've owned by far and I'm not expecting it to hang around for long at that price with that spec.

I'd like this car sold as apparently I have too many at the moment! New price on Pistonheads, Autotrader and eBay of £8,695 - I'm sure there's a deal to be done for a forum member.

Good news mate, well done. Now you have off-loaded that junker at least it will be easier for me to park the next time I call in to annoy you! ;)

You annoy me anywhere in the world. Please don't make a special journey just so I have to see your ugly mug!
