Glad you are pleased with your first Onega- she’s a beut! Now be prepared for the lust for others that will follow - don’t worry, we got your back.
@JwRosenthal - glad you like it... Alas, not my first, I have been diagnosed with early stage Omega-itis..

What did you pay for it?
@Qwertyqaz - I paid under what the Speedmaster 101 chart says for a good example of this reference (and I also got the bracelet)

Slightly terrifying - but, thankfully, I was forearmed.

What happened to your other forearm?! Lol... kidding

Classy of you to follow up with the group. Congrats on the acquisition!

Well done! @DanT you are hereby awarded membership of the Brave Pill Club.
Well, if you have an Alfa Romeo so probably are used to taking the pills anyway 😝

What could possibly go wrong with a GTV6? 😕

I love Alfas, but when my 1968 Spider decided to breakdown on the inside lane of the M25 going uphill at a point where there was no hard shoulder, leaving me with the option of gliding back downhill against the traffic or pushing the car uphill 300m to the next safe point, it confirmed my theory that they're like exotic lovers.

When they're dressed up nicely and lighting is right, the music is playing, the sun is shining and the mood takes you, there's no happier place to be. Then in the morning, she gets up, steals your wallet and fkcs off with your phone, trousers and house keys.

Sorry, didn't read on after that. Is that a 1750? 🥰

I loved my Alfa, it was a great drive with its purring boxer engine and awesome handling, but I had to let it go when the bodywork rusted away so much the wipers disappeared up the road while driving 😲
