i had a 180 great fun but a pain in the ars to live with dodgy seats always getting stuck or releasing themselfs to hard suspension seatbelts always get stuck behind ur seats and no spare wheel apart from that it was fun not much can keep up with them on country roads do u have the same problems ?

[rpres]

Only thing I agree with there is the dodgy seats, they're great supporting but impossible to adjust! Suspension is hard but that's the price u pay for handling

[rpres]

Reefton Spur, about an hour & a bit out of Melbourne. Continues like this for another hour or so, great stretch of road.

I didn't know OJ Simpson drove a 206....

come on people?! you cant be serious discussing whos faster here??? obviously GTA is much more powerfull car! and if you pay attention at the driving skils, you'll see that Alfa is strictly in his lane, no cutting corners. while 206 is all over road, and falling back continiously.

mine like, goes for gloves! :))

FORZA ALFA ROMEO !!

@crabyars I love the seats, the seatbelt going behind the seat, maybe a little at first, learnt to just lay mine down along the rib support. My gripe is the front control arms. Can feel them giving too much after only 15000km wear. Have swapped mine out twice, looking to get them remade with urethane now...

Love the gloves, pity about the drive performance not matching. Next time if you're gonna put up a video, have some balls and stretch the Pug's handling. My mum drives faster on a Sunday on her way to Church!

I love my gti 180 but the suspension is hard as nails and the seats are a pain. But with my K&N induction kit and my longlife exhaust system it sounds like a dream :-). Flaming expensive to run but is the love of my life :-)

I thought this looked like Victoria- whats the name of the Road? is it called reefton spur road or is that the name of the area?

[selekt1one]

@rpres i knew it was in Victoria-

@roasthunter LOL@ OJ Comment. I know he wears gloves but when did he get out of jail??

[AdolaminII]

Only two things to say. 1.)Peugeot = Fucking French crap, is always guaranteed to fall apart on you! 2.) 206 GTi 180's are bloody fast though :P

Great vid! The GTA has 70 more horses so its credible for the Pug driver to keep so close, tho the Alfa does prove its punch where the road opens out. The GTA could potentialy be the quicker car across smooth black-top but perhaps the Pug has arguably nimbler handling. Great Roads! Been there, done that with Aussie Frogs - a memorable drive to say the least...
