    What's it like to drive?

    Excellent drive, suspension is a bit choppy, but handles well, engine sounds nice. Not that quick but a very nice, individual drive. Gets noticed a lot!

    A nightmare... Small back window and large 'c' pillars mean rear visibility is poor. But then again, its an Alfa..
