Next lease car dilemma-alfa giulia veloce or BMW 240i M

[TJC46]

As per the title. Scirocco R goes back in March and i am struggling [for the right cost] to replace it.

Both the above options are significantly more to lease than the VW., but that was 3 years ago so some cost increase allowed for.

BMW is about £400 more to lease over the 2 years. Both 2 year lease, 8k miles.

Never had an Alfa, but have seen good reviews on the Giulia Veloce.

Had a BMW 330i m sport coupe which i loved driving, hence the interest in the 6 pot 240i m sport.

Both cars are very good spec, auto + paddles, leather, nav, 18 inch alloys etc.

Alfa is standard red, with the BMW there is a choice between metallic white, black or blue.

Opinions please, which one would you choose and why.

Noise wise the noise the Alfa makes is completely uninspiring to my ears, so for me it would have to be the M240i. Although I do think that the M240i is quite bland and forgettable when I see them on the road. So the Alfa certainly wins in that regard for me.

I'd go for the Giulia but with your lease deal being for the last of the six pots it's a tough call but I think the Alfa would still take it for me.
