Swede: Thanks for the Alfa photo. They both look like winners but the Fiat design just seems more beautiful. Both are wearing Pininfarina badges. I sure hope the Fiat will go into production.

My apologies for getting off topic.

Hi everybody, and a happy New Year to you all.
Just got back from 2 weeks in the UK spending Christmas with the family. It was great, but it's oh so good to be back to blue skies and warmth.
So what did I get for Christmas? Well, a fabulous time with my one and only 16 month old grandson, shoes, CDs and hmmm, how can I put this; a Maserati. :lol:

Our son Scott got a V-12 Sound Racer from Santa, and within minutes he and I were in his 500 laughing our you-know-what-off. Hilarious to have that Ferrari V-12 sound in that car! He has since taken a couple of friends out wih him without saying anything about it and had some really good laughs watching their faces as they try to figure out what the heck is going on!

Rubber caps for the brake bleeder fittings. And Peace on Earth - we wish!

Oh: And mittens that let you release fingers and thumb and still keep arthritic hands warm while working on Fiat brakes in an unheated garage!

Sometimes it's best not to answer a wife's question about what you want. Made the mistake of saying I'd do the P90X workout if she bought it. Well guess what was under the tree for me!
This thing is kicking my ass but I'm not going to quit and have to listen to that razing.

Lo (mistake spelling corrected) and behold, after struggling with my braking system two Christmas Fiat Mechanics stopped by to assist. :lol:
