It snowed the same time last year when I came to Surrey. I don't have the Jeep to get me through now though. Just picked up the Alpha yesterday.

what you got an alfa for?

Mine is sitting on the drive waiting for me to fit a water pump, which means the cam belt has to be changed as well :( just replaced the master cylinder and four brake pipes, still got a steering link to change aswell. Check your water pump, it needs to have a metal impeller, the plastic ones crack and slip on the shaft.

Because it gets an average of 60mpg, is "Sporty" at the flick of a switch and, as it is only just over a year old, it still has almost two years full warranty and full AA cover. They cost "£18,700 on the road" when new and I got this one for £12,995. It was still at under 7K miles when I picked it up.

Plus it is much better looking than the usual Golf/Focus/Astra type thing.

Quite happy with it at the moment thanks. :P

I agree, love the throttle response, drive-ability and comfort, not to mention all the toys. Wasn't having a dig, just never thought it be your cup of tea, what with their reputation and all.
