Alfa Romeo Mito Red Bird M2 cloverleaf

She was first purchased as a daily for my other Mito, but now she takes centre stage. My close friend gave me this Mito when she chose to separate ways because she had acquired another Italian Hero. 

Before my 'Show automobile' burst a head gasket, I drove this car every day for around four months. I was considering taking the Red Bird M1 at the time for a road trip throughout Europe. It was decided that I would drive the RB M2 to the Alfa Romeo Museum across France, Switzerland, and Italy because the problems could not be resolved in time. My favourite 155 engine was a joy to be anywhere, and she never missed a beat. 

It was undoubtedly one of the best times of my life, and I will always treasure the customised stainless steel exhaust that added the symphony of the engine roar. 

My former car's modifications were gradually transferred to this one after the trip. She has all of the modifications that were previously on the RB M1 on her now, and more are on the way!
