I think that Squadra 916 is a really great resource . I have owned and run Alfas since the 1970s, but I have learned so much of value about 916 series cars from you guys . Without the skills, enthusiasm and knowledge available on the forums I would have struggled to do some of the work that has now transformed my GTV V6. The discussions are invaluable and whilst earning a living has got in the way of doing anything much with the car over the winter and spring, I still look at the site on a regular basis, just to stay up to date. I suppose that there aren't that many of us who value our cars enough to be regarded as real alfisti - but Squadra 916 is invaluable to those of us who do. I'm not sure that we have sufficient numbers to support individual sections and I don't want anything to happen that would detract from the forums. I quite like the fact that we are able to pool knowledge and experience from all over the world and centralise it in one accessible venue. I'm not against the idea of sections as such, but I think they might just be a distraction. I don't know how many UK based members we have or whether we need to try to recruit in any event?. The truth is that I rather like things as they are!

I love the integrity of this international forum and I don't have need for any additional local support, but I understand motive behind the idea. Our Croatian part of Squadra is very low-traffic and most of messages there are about local meets, local services, shops, etc. and most users there are more comfortable to communicate that kind of stuff in their native language. So, I think that an experiment can do no harm. We can try it and see if it will fly - if not, it's easy to drop the whole idea.
