Just noticed this on another forum. Nothing to do with me...

Looks quite nice but why no engine bay photos or rear seats or dash ???
The Alfa 164 leather front seats look pretty good and will no doubt wear better than the original Alcantara which was probably the "Ice" which although very nice was a bugger to keep clean.

I'm sure if you were interested you could message the guy and get the missing photos. :)

It's also advertised on an Alfa website http://www.alfa155.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36658
There is another link to a few more photos on that thread.

From the Ad.

"Anyway, its a 1994, 16v LS, so series 3 and one of the last ones made. It's got 185k on the clock (this will rise) MOT Nov, Tax end Dec. I have no history with the it at all ....
Body wise its in pretty good condition, there's a bit of rust starting on the front lip of the bonnet and theres a slight bit of damage on the boot, small dent, cracked paint. The rear window surround is not rusty and in good condition.
Engine, it pulls very well, and overboost kicks in nicely @ 4.5k. I was told by the previous owner it had a replacement bottom end fitted which has around 60k on it. I was also told it has a slightly larger than std turbo, and it does go quite quickly.I've recently fitted a de-cat pipe, which has helped fuel economy. Its got new front discs/pads, and used replacement rears are included.
Interior is tan leather from an Alfa 164, electric seats working and in decent condition. The passenger window recently stopped working, I'm thinking it may be the switch, but I can't say for certain. The electric sunroof tilts fine, but only goes half way back - I think this is because the sliding cover is jammed. Air con not working, I've not investigated this, but climate works ok.
I've done about 5k miles in it without issue 1500 of those this week," Quote


I've looked at the photos from the link but still no engine photos, going by the comments regarding "overboost Kicking in" I would say its a VIS as that is the efffect with the VIS when the short inlet tracts open, one thing to remember on the less specced 1993/1994 Themas, they were fitted with the straight injection 2.olt from the series 2's, rather than the latest Vis or the Turbo engined higher spec  Series 3 models.

Still looks worth the money.
