I hated the orange Alfa for a reason. There's only a few vehicles on this planet that should be orange!!! Fast and furious Toyota Supra, General Lee, Bond car, Lambo Aventador, Sainsbury's vans and RAC vans. Orange hides the panel lines etc and makes the car look boring like a ford focus........

Your 'Irishman' comment made me immediately think Paddy Hopkirk, not who you were looking for but worth reading up about, he drove many British car makes to success during his career...................that junk British companies were supposed to be so bad at. :)
