Ok then....... Im off to make the other half a cup of tea, tell her she looks really pretty...... Then do a sneaky purchase, and wait for her to whinge " what do you need another for"...... " dont know my love, why do you have so much make up, when you dont need it"..... Smooth

I've tried that approach too but the scowled still there ........ Why you bought another kit!!! You have that one already but when you try to explain it a different version all I get is huff huff but I never stop he buying new shoes etc

The Alfetta was originally a British kit made by Merit along with their Talbot Lago. Both are 1/24 scale with basic engine detail and were made in the early sixties. Merit made a range of 1/24 scale kerbside F1 and LM racers in the late fifties. The moulds were sold off to a toy manufacturer in Italy apart from the Alfa and Talbot Lago that were acquired by SMER. These two have since gone to another manufacturer. Both kits although a bit basic lend themselves to be super detailed by the more experienced modeller. I believe that Heller released a 1/24 scale Talbot Lago GP kit in the 1980's that is well detailed and not a repop of the old Merit kit.
