| Just wondered how similar to the 33 they are. I think it would be quite fun to own one as a project car runaround - a car you can take out and be pretty sure noone will know what it is. You could hot one up and have an ultimate wolf in sheeps clothing! |

I think if anyone has owned or has driven an ARNA, they'd be too embarressed to share their experience! |

Hi,
To what I know 2 Arnas exist in Greece - One is located in Western Greece and the other one somewhere in Athens.
I have seen the second one , a white one, and my first contract was rather difficult since I thought I had seen a cherry with AR hub caps but at last I discovered it was an ARNA.
Regards,

I drove one at a local some time ago now...I didnt buy it,only drove it out
of curiosity.
I remember experiencing quite alot of body roll...fairly lively performance though.
I recall it stayed at the back of the lot rotiing away for a few years before disappearing probably to the nearest breakers yard.
Anyway someone had to own up didnt they

Hi
Old Alfa dealer my father knew sold his first one to a Sud owner. The owner tried to corner it like a Sud and landed up on his roof. He stopped trying to sell the Arna then!
All the best

Hi,
Well after leaving from yesterday's celebration in Panathinaiko Stadium for the Euro championship  I noticed an Arna - Having along with me the digicam I took some photos.
Regards,
