Down to the fact that a car in the garage is labelled as "My 1st 155" or something similar, what was your first Alfa?
Mine was a 1993 Alfa 155 2.0L 8v in black. M570 CLM if I remember correctly. Wonder if its still going?

P357 SMR - 2.0 16v in Nero 601 - now scrapped or probably close to it!
I was pretty happy having that at 19 - I put a lovely sound system in and it was a great all round car. Then only about 10 months later the Q4 turned up!

Still it was reliable and free, so I can't really complain. And like you I put a big sound system in it, unfortunately probably worth more than the car.

My first 155 was an R reg Champers. I think it was R192 FEU, or something like that...

Hello!
My first Alfa Romeo (and first car also) was a Alfasud Sprint Q.V., Year 1983 in grey. This was 1991 and 3 years later I was not able to lift the car for the changement of tyres because the jack went into the body. :E:cry:
A 33 16V followed...
1 Year later a 33 P4 :love-001:
Best regards, Martin

I owned a P4 for a short period of time, only got rid of it as I couldn't transport it down here. Even though it was a little bit tired it still went well and handled like a go-kart.
Be nice to have another one at some point.
My first road legal car and first Alfa was 155 2.0ts 8v 1995. It was dark blue, last 8v with new front grill and 16v interior.

Was it one of the widebodied 8v or did they only do that with the 1.8? Can't remember now.
2.0 8v was only narrowbody.

My car was narrowbody. But I have heard that they are made of a few widebodied 2.0ts 8v.
Yes, there was a short crossover period.
