Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
New price is a little high but secondhand is excellent.
Costs
Good but new front tyres are needed frequently. Belt changes need engine out.
-
On the road
Driving
Lovely, but you really feel small potholes. Standard Alfa brakes very poor.
Performance
Fantastic engine and gearshift, pulls like a train.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Tracking needs adjusting regularly (3500m), minor niggles with loose interior trim and sunroof. Windows need regular adjustment to prevent fouling.
Image
Gets looks, image only marred by interior and Fiat's image.
Comfort
Headrests are not adjustable(!) and the seat doesn't hold you round corners.
-
Security and Service
Security
Alarm and imobiliser, nothing much more than basic.
Service
Tools left in engine bay, after work on sunroof interior had oily fingerprints over the grey material. Always some problem with service quality every time.
