ALFA ROMEO 156 SW JTD 16V M-JET VELOCE 2004

Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon JTD 16v M-Jet Veloce in Gabbiano Blue

153600 miles and FSH

MOT to 6th August 2017 (no advisories on last one)

Mint 17" Supersport Alloys

Many receipts for recent work included

Original handbooks. service book etc

In the last couple of months of my ownership the car as had the following:

All 4 wheels fully refurbished by Mint Alloys (still unmarked)

New battery

New driveshaft, seal and replaced gearbox oil

New Bluetooth JVC Stereo (original Alfa unit included with sale)

New coolant pipe and coolant top up

Air con regassed (no leaks)

New wiper blades front & rear

Rear bumper completely resprayed

Belt and water pump were changed at 133,000 miles

I would describe the bodywork as very good with no signs of corrosion however there are a few pin dents and scratches but only noticeable when close to the vehicle.

I have receipts for lots of suspension work (that these always need). It drives really well but there is some minor scrunching over speed bumps but it's not too bad.

The interior is in excellent condition with very clean leather Veloce seats, everything electronic works including all 4 windows, trip computer and the climate control

The alarm can be intermittent so I now just lock it on the key to be safe.

It's a great looking fun to drive future classic and a rare sight especially the better looking Facelift models. It has gotten me a genuine 64mpg on a run to the Midlands and back and averages close to 50mpg in mixed driving and school runs.

It's a 13 year old Alfa however and it's not mint, but for Shed of the Week money it's a very good example with a cracking diesel engine, an excellent interior, loads of history and is one of the best looking wagons ever made.

I look after all of my cars, and despite buying this as a workhorse, I have kept it running as well as I can. Selling as need something larger for work now.

Test drives and viewings are encouraged in Hitchin.
