i,m wanting to get back into trackdays, sprints and drag meets and want another fast volvo.

i love the retro alfa but god does it feel slow now???

I've heard they are alot of fun and darn fast little cars, I always thought they looked like they could spin out easy but I dout thats the case.

they handle better than anything, 50/50 weigh distribution, rear gearbox, LSD and lightweight.
i built a 3ltr v6 road and track car, that was fun, 220bhp, 1100kgs, slicks and straight thru side-pipes.
i bought the 2L TS for better reliability but lost the torque and noise

My 156 isnt a patch on the old 75 much nicer looking and massively better interior but just no fun
