Alfa Romeo 145 2.0 Cloverleaf 3d (1998/R) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Cost me £1500 for a !998/ R Try finding a Golf GTI for that.
Costs
Pretty good on fuel if driven sensibly, parts a bit expensive, but no worse than others.

On the road
Driving
Real hoot to drive, Nice revvy growling engine, very good handling, ride firm, but this is a hot hatch.
Performance
Goes very well for a 2 litre engine, excellent fuel economy/ performance compromise

Living with it
Reliability
No problems as yet
Image
Looks very good against the boring looking opposition, especial as mines in red. Rare car too.
Comfort
A bit short leg long arm in the driving position. Nice seats though.

Security and Service
Security
No one has stolen it yet. Alarm and Alfa code immobiliser
Service
Not too bad if you use a specialist where possible. Dealer problems must be largely myth.
