530d = ?
I too had two Alfas for my first cars(s). Alfa Sud and an Alfetta - Really great cars but prone to falling apart. Not a problem when you are 17 though !
It's a shame, I would not buy a AR now. I test drove two different 156's about 6 years ago. One broke down during the testdrive and the other had a suspension problem during the testdrive ! Consequently I bought a 328

A90 stand for Alfa Romeo 90? :'(? Yes, my former favorite car brand.
Used to own one for 4 years with a 2.5 liters engine / 152 BHP rear wheel drive and a trans axle construction. Also had 2 alfetta?s (my first car and still love them)
Now since Alfa Romeo does not build rear drive cars anymore I? changed to BMW.?
Anyone knows this car ?
