I also loved the 2000 GTV. This one is from 1972:
Even the (race-tuned) 2000 was seriously cool:
But my favourite, along with the Spider, is the 1963 Giulietta:
That is just the epitome of cool, and pure sex on wheels!!
I've always had a special place in my heart for Alfas, as they are quintessentially Italian and real drivers cars

Looks like a great day out - and I had no idea that you have sunshine in Scotland!
My favourite Lancia is the Delta Integrale - could have bought one once (knackered but cheap) but no-where to store it - and no license to drive it either
