Is there a reliable solution to the cable issue?
Well spoken
This also happens on a bmw engine right? I was looking for one for the wife on a diesel version but there's to much maintenance needed and scares me that to change the timing chain or the clutch you need to remove the engine (expensive) 😮😢
the S54 has the same clicking noise while the M54 doesn’t Ig BMW just likes to make the performance engines sound weird 😂
no... is not worth the fashion... get a car... or even walk...
If you have the 1kz delete the egr, it gets even better
This one has the 5VZ-FE 👍🏻
What year is it? Looks later but you say it's the 3.2, not the 3.4?
Come back, you posh cair of punts! You had something really great with this channel.
Thank you good sir, we are most definitely not disappearing! Just a short intermission of boring adult life things resulting in a bit of a delay till we get going again 👍🏻
Still my all time favorite car. Miss it so much. Small but such a fun car. Loved it. The noise, the top down experience. I would buy another in a second. I bought a m135i due to my change in situation which was technically faster but was not as safe to drive fast. The Porsche was awesome fun. I think the 987 and 997 genre was a great buy. Porsche became more expensive and exclusive after this.
I had this car when it was brand new . It’s nice till 80k miles . Then from there it’s emptying your wallet . The gearbox isn’t too reliable and the vanos is very loud over 80k miles .
How the previous owners used it makes a huge difference too! I find with these cars when they are old you get lots of little things to fix but so far no big big issues. This model also doesn’t have vanos so that’s one less thing to worry about 👍🏻 Thanks for watching
Lets say maintenance has been kept up to date, how long are these engines known to last for in miles or km?
I think I saw a video of someone with a 500k original engine but who knows 🤷🏻♂️ I think it you keep on top of maintenance they are pretty bulletproof but things like bore scoring gets expensive when replacing/repairing things like the Alusil block
wow ,you know nothing about your car 😂 ,Engine is bmw/Peugeot group ,it has vanos bmw tech in the engine and has more torque than most engines that size 😂.....
I have a 2005 987 Boxster S and bought it pre-owned in ‘07. To this day, it thrills me to just sit in it, let alone drive it. The mid-engine just makes the feel and performance like no other. Undoubtedly the best car I’ve ever owned.
Yes, what else would you like to know?
2:21 you what? 😂
something weird with the colour balance or grading of this video. Looks like you are wearing green clothing when I bet its black. the car colour changes from shot to shot
As an ex owner of a 4C and current quad owner, his comment about the 4C not driving well, is well, ridiculous. The one thing it does is drive incredibly well, particularly with the right tires (some people also use spacers). The opinios generated from hear say other inexperienced people is well funny.
How does the 4c drive? I'm a Quad owner & all time Alfa fan (23+ years).
TOYOTA LANDCRUISER ❤️👍 THE OFFROAD KING 👑
Plan on used Mini repairs to cost more than house maintenance or health care.
I bought mine at 44000 and first issue was hpfp £ 320 DIY pretty easy , always buy Peugeot parts as they are same as BMW but a lot cheaper. Car was BMW, Peugeot mix to save money after banking crisis
Not hard to be better than a Landrover.
I don’t know, some people like their cars when they break down all the time 🤷🏻♂️
Great car. Nice guy.
We agree!
Bro change your thumbnail, the quality is really bad
Our finger slipped and uploaded the wrong one!
Still got one 1KZ
It’s been a great car! We have had it from new !
Hello, thank you! I have one from 2000, RHD, in Holland. Excellent car!!
Very nice! A mostly flat country probably doesn’t challenge the car enough 😉!
The steering wheel is on the wrong side!
It's a great daily driver
I've seen in other reviews the pedals are slightly offset. Is this true?
These are all full-time 4wd (H) with a planetary center differential in the transfer case. HL is 4wd with the center differential in the transfer case locked. LL is 4wd low range also with the center diff locked. The Diff Lock turn button is then for the rear differential lock.
Thanks for this. I’ve only ever used it a handful of times so never really thought about it that much. At least I now know! Thanks for watching 👍🏻
How do you connect that shi
Bought a 2002 3L D4D in 2009 for £10,000. Drove 100,000 miles with £9,000 maintenance. Had to sell it due to the corrosion and the costs of repairs was getting too high. Now with a 2014 icon with less corrosion, that that also will be a problem going forwards.
Yeah rust can be a big problem on these! Great car but anything that is interesting seems to be getting priced off the roads at the moment 😐
@@carchaps Even downscaling to a second hand Honda C90 you are paying £3k for one at 30 years old. I paid £500 for one in 1982 :)
I need the nr to his stylist
How does my FBO e39 540i m62tu dinin stage 4 ecu straight pipe sound????:)??:)??
There are a couple engines where I prefer the non-M sounds. M54vsS54 is a good example. Sound wise, I think it sounds better. Could just be the lower redline 🤷🏻♂️. In terms of S62, I don’t think it sounds bad but stock (or especially with x-pipe) it has significant raspiness.
Nice Car, i love my 986 :)
Glad you are enjoying it!
Time to change that rear plate 😅
Great video. I have owned mine for 17 years now and I still love it as much now as when I first got it.
Great to hear!
young driver here who's not too long got myself an 07 cooper s. guess i've not had the maintenance costs get to my head yet. but as someone who's only driven super slow cars due to insurance. man this cars fucking awesome. screw the comfort issues, screw the fact it's a little janky on dodgy roads, and screw the fact its totally impractical and the back seats are useless. its all part of the fun for me personally as a young single guy, i absolutely love it. if you're willing to put up with proper maintenance, these things are a BLAST and low on insurance for what you experience too. Great video mate
Love to hear it! Ngl I miss mine badly, it is such a good hot hatch
Smiling and smelling that weed..... could be me passing along in my 2006 boxster s ,top down, year round! Aloha from Hawaii!

24k miles in 6 and a half years? Sounds like you need to get it out the garage more 😉 Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Were do you all reveiws get this heavy depreciation from if you want depreciation try looking at German garbage out there.my trofo white quadrifoglio has covered 24k its 68 plate still worth 45k .plus this person talking about this masterpiece it's his 1st alfa .but let's face it as usual it's only alfa with problems
Dont think it’s bad appreciation at all, but it’s a positive for many enthusiasts that cars like the Quad are more attainable now
Colorado? Toyota have a fetish for changing names of their cars for different markets
Yeah it’s crazy
Mate youre just slagging off guys that are earning a honest living, also giving them a bad name saying they steal things from your car AND purposely scratch your car. All for what? 10 views so far? Maybe try think of original content that isnt beating down a working fella just for a few views People like you are a deadweight to society.
I dont think losing half its value in 7 years is "hefty depreciation" at all, in fact I think it's frustratingly low depreciation for those who would buy these as a used bargain supercar.
It’s not bad at all, especially compared to similar cars, but it’s enough to move it closer to bargain status
happy as a cucumber while check engine light on. nice🤣typical alfa owner
It’s a special state of zen owning an Alfa
So the guy likes mushrooms and driving his M5...xd Nice one!
Who doesn’t?
5:15 That roof elastic needs replacing! Mines got corrosion around the badge too.
Yep, it certainly does, I manually fold the roof under the window surrounds now 🤣 seems to be a common thing, want to get mine done it bugs me so much
do you perchance need a new battery? often sorts out the electrical gremlins
I have heard that - a lot of these issues are related to low batteries
Fantastic candid interview, I think his is in the minority in terms of electrical problems he’s mentioned. Mine has been great in that regard. Any car enthusiast must drive one at the very least, let alone own one because Jeremy Clarkson said so, hmph 😤 😂
Glad you enjoyed it and that you have had a good ownership experience - think everyone has this preconceived notion about Alfa, but don’t bat an eyelid when German alternatives go wrong constantly
so so true!@@carchaps
lol the exhaust note
I own a 4C. Love my baby! And after the 4 cyl. It is very important to have a 6 Cylinder! Time to Buy one. Production is going soon to the end. This Yours last chance ! Value will grow up a lot! Like for my 4C🍀👍
Thanks for watching
