Things I`ve learnt after owning my AR 2 years!

1. People over 30 can't find the rear door handles.
2. Whenever you tell someone you own an Alfa their first sentence is always "I've always liked Alfa's but . . ."
3. You will get sick of saying "Rust was only bad on the older models" and "No. No more unreliable than any other cars I've owned".
4. You WILL come to think that all the world's evils - whether car-related or not - is something to do with the "MAF"
5. You will come to realise that people who constantly go on about you "owning a Fiat" are sad knobs.
6. People will stop to let you pull out into traffic. If you'd bought a BMW you would have spent the equivalent of 2.3 days over the last year waiting to pull out (scientifically proven - honest)
7. Walk out of ANY bar, ANYWHERE with your mate who owns a 3-series BMW and I guarantee the totty you've just picked up will want to get in YOUR car - this works right down to M3 v 1.6 TSpark level.
8. The fuel gauge is just taking the piss. Don't be offended - and stop flicking if with your finger, it makes NO difference.
9. The dealers are also taking the piss. Feel free to flick them as much as you like - then f**k off to a good independent.
10. 98% of Alfa owners are terrific people who feel the Alfisti passion in their bones. The other 2% are f**kwits who couldn't afford a BMW.
11 Yes, they're good round corners but they DON'T have anti-gravity fitted as standard.
12. The missus will soon get used to walking the half-mile to the supermarket entrance cos you're worried about "dings".
13. You'll eventually stop denying you looked back at the car 6 times during that half-mile walk.
14. There's not a squeak or rattle that can't be covered up with the radio.
15. The answer to most problems is "don't worry, they all do that"
16. It's quite normal to have to press the boot release twice to open it.
17. When taking your children for a drive in the countryside, you will hear them shout things like "Faster daddy, faster!!" when they see open road.
18. Your mood will vary with the way the car is running. A smile at work in the morning means you have just been treated to a "spirited drive". A F**K OFF sign means you haven't!
19. Most of the parts that break on the 156 are made in Germany
