The Real Cvh
Low Mileage
Hi.
Couldn't find a "new members" intro page so I guess it's going here.
Always been a fan of the X 1/9 and almost bought one in 1994 in South Africa. Eventually ended up in the UAE and found a car 4 years ago. Bought a Haynes manual and then fortunately did not buy the car. About a month ago while on an Alfa drive (Planet Alfa UAE), I was informed by a friend that there was another car for sale. I went to take a look and spent 3 weeks convincing myself that I had a "good enough" explanation for my wife as to why I needed another car...
Emailed Matt at MidWest a few times and pulled the trigger. The car arrived a few days ago, and I've been trying to sort out what I can before sending it off to a mate in Dubai (I'm in Abu Dhabi) for a lot of preventative maintenance.
Car is an '87 (I think), and was based in Japan. It was brought over to the UAE by an Emirati member of the Sharjah Classic Car Club. Definitely not in the best shape, and in need of a paint job. Also the previous owner/s made a lot of DIY modifications that I need to sort out. But happy to add the car to my Alfa stable...
