The blue 159 is in Faridabad now. I saw the car last week (on 6th Feb), sadly I was in the opposite lane so could not click a pic.

Although I quite like the 4C and the 159, I am actually more interested to know more about classic Alfas. I know there aren't too many, but there are quite a few right?

This 159 2.2 JTS has been doing rounds in Bangalore, was spotted with some temporary plates in December and now is running permanent KA plates. Heard this one was bailed out of the customs. Car is usually spotted on the outskirts of the city. The number plate base reads EuroAutomobile, which turns out to be the Alfa dealer in Singapore when I ran a quick Google search. Could be a TR entry too.

There are 2 classic and 1 vintage car inside the gates of Classic Stripes Private Limited in Pelhar, Nalasopara near Mumbai. One of which I believe is this car itself. The other 2 are a Classic Mercedes and a vintage Cadillac. The founding family owns other cars of interest as well including a Porsche and Ford Fiesta from UK. One of the sons is a Bhpian.
