Re: [alfa] Berlina or Milano

["Dean" <tessiedog@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello David. I am not sure of market value where you are however restoring a
berlina in australia is like restoring an alfetta. Due to there resale value
you may as well piss the money away. I like the berlina however maybe the
gulia sedans are a better choice unless you are going to keep the berlina
for some time and have your heart set on it. A 75(milano) would be a good
choice for a day driver and as much as I love the twin cam 4 the V6 sure is
sweet.
This is the kind of difficult choice we all love ie:what alfa to buy next!
Cheers
Dean
