Folks
I had a similar problem with my GTV6 last summer, the coolant
tank was cracking and looked ready to burst. So on a trip to the UK I
dropped by the alfa dealer I used to visit when I lived there and did
two things
1.. test drove a new GTV (2L 4 cyl) what a lovely car, a little snug
inside but quite outstanding...... for a FWD. which cost
about 24K pounds or $38K
2.. ordered a Coolant tank for my GTV6, which took a week to arrive
and cost, if i remember right about 16 pounds, $25
So after much consideration, I decided No 1 was too much even for the
alfa, but No 2 was quite reasonable.
Talking to the service guys there, they regularly ship parts oversea's
and had no problem shipping it to me in CA (i'd left by then).
So for all the US GTV owners stuck with failing plastic, maybe the
UK alfa association or some specific dealers could help out here
Just a thought
cheers
