Interesting colour that & quite pretty. I looked at buying one but for the first time ever in an Alfa couldn't get comfy.

The lack of classic insurance killed it for me. The quote was over a grand at the time. Lot of car for the money though. :)

the seats are the sport version tan leather momo with an alfa script/logo on them but if anything although they look good they are too wide, the car is the lusso version which apparently means something

Glad to see you've popped you're ugly mug in here, it's good to have you back :)

Lusso is from latin roughly meaning "for the less sophisticated". Chav would be a modern equivalent :lol:

i think it is really just italian for luxury, its etymology is probably latin but then again so is chav. :D
