They probably figure we're too conservative for things like that. :-( Where's a link to your Alfa? My German is too rusty to make sense out of the Stern web site. Cheers, Scott.

Post #222,602 by Another Scott 9/3/05 1:16:39 PM Reply	Thanks. Notice the year on that? 2003. 73 kB .img. :-( No sign on the UK Alfa site of it ever being anything more than a show car, that I could find anyway. Put one of [link\|http://www.grouplotus.com/car/car_product.php?id=2&mid=11\|these] on your wish list. It's a one-off too, but you'd be supporting your fellow countrymen. :-) Since it's custom, you might be able to get them to move the seat back a foot or so so you would fit.
