Hi Guys,

I'm taking a plunge and looking at buying an Alfa Romeo. Always loved them, Went to a Fiat garage to get my Girlfriends 500 and saw the Mito. Fell in love with it, went home and got an insurance quote with it as a first car and it seems extremely affordable.

Back story done, both examples are just over the 45k mark and 10 plates, but are coming with full Alfa dealership quality checks and FSH. Are there any issues around this mileage, or anything i should expect in the next coming 20,000 miles? Also what to look out for. I already know the awful issue with stonechips on the front!

Thanks in advance

Not a MiTO owner but heard issues with clutch and gearbox mainly if used in city traffic, make sure that they have done the first major service (normally at 32K)
