Yeah, so I resigned from my job at FIAT yesterday morning, was getting sick of the shit I was getting from Turin, so I chucked it in, sales still slump, my wages mysteriously shrink from time to time and the treatment I got was quite fankly shit, so thats that over :) Once I go on Christmas break, I don't come back.
What really made me chuck it in was an opening with Milan-based Banca Intesa, one of the largest banking corporations in Italy, if not the largest, after a succession of mergers, after a gruelling process an oppurtunity with them arose and I have accepted it :) Not only am I earning a hell of a lot more, I am in stable employment and hopefully, won't get treated like shit. However I won't be moving to Milan, still in Genoa, making a few trips back and forth every now and then, but working with a local branch :)
I turn the Alfa back in as well, however- I'm taking off my engine, interior and exterior mods and putting all stock units back on, because they are rightfully mine :) Who cares though, I'm already looking at new cars- taken a look at some used 330Ci's, CLK's and Peugeot 406 Coupes- definitely leaning towards the Bimmer.........In the mean time I've got a FIAT Uno beater to run around in, once the Alfa goes- so yeah, transport isn't too much of a worry. Bring on 2004!!!!!!!

Noooooooo!!!!!!! Getting it in Jan at the earliest :)
Screw the 330Cd, have you sampled the 3 litre petrol? It's a stunner! Get a Sport model if you can find one, looks better inside & out :thumbsup:
