Alfa Romeo GT (04-10) - Review

Review by Ben Wall on
Last Updated: 06 May 2009
The sophisticated GT coupe is every inch a proper Alfa Romeo and although it may be overshadowed by the newer Brera, it's still a good choice. Stunningly good looking it has a great interior and is available with some excellent engines, including a diesel. It may not be the best coupe of this size to drive, but it’s great value for money on the used market. Charisma is much in abundance for the enthusiast and it's been pretty reliable so far - something that's not always been the case for Alfa Romeo.

Safety

The GT has not been crash tested by Euro NCAP, but you do get six airbags and all the expected safety features including traction control and a fire prevention system. An alarm and immobiliser, plus deadlocks should help to keep it secure.

Reliability

Alfa's reputation for reliability is improving all the time but it has always been pretty poor. Don't be surprised if you see some niggles but remember - plenty of owners of German cars also suffer problems.
