Fast & powerful. Love my Alfa. Looks good & is practical too. Loads of space & comfortable. Electrics got a mind of their own but wouldn't swap it for the world. Son calls it "The Beast"!!!

I was not even looking for an Alfa to be honest and found mine by chance, tucked away at a Renault garage on a wet Sunday afternoon, and I have not stopped smiling since!!

Great car when running well. Car bought second hand for 2/3 cost of equivalent BMW or Audi. Spent the difference maintaining it for the same net cost whilst having the pleasure of driving something different. Good choice.

Fabulous looking car - love it - great performance -love it - but Don't let your heart rule your head. The car isn't the most spacious internally (a Mondeo would have been a more sensible choice) and not the most comfortable especially on long journeys - and it has proved to be unreliable and expensive in terms of repairs.

The best car I have ever owned. Really happy. Looks good , drives well and is so comfortable. Tyres are pricey but you know that before you buy because wheels are 19 inch as standard. A lot of car for the money!
