Alfa 164 page down again?



Is the 164 tech page down again?

And the GTV6 tea tray is simple to explain. The factory thought they needed additional clearance for the V6 plenum. They made the tooling for hoods (OK bonnets) with the hole cut out for the metal hood scoop they thought they needed. Then they ran a bunch of hoods with holes and realized they didn't need the extra clearance after all. Too expensive to weld and finish steel covers on all those hoods, so they molded a cool plastic feature for the hood instead.

OK prove that's wrong. And no points for spotting the flaw in the "logic".....

Cheers

Michael
