..A good friend of mine has got one of these as his company car.

looks great inside and out, has anyone here got one?
how has yours been, good car?

I dont think I am a fan of the looks. Something not right. Maybe it will grow on me.

A few of my colleagues have these...

Cue the comments about how Alfa dealers have nice comfy seats in their waiting areas, did not go down well!

He's already heard those from his Focus, Mondeo and Insignia Opting Colleagues.

I'd have one without any hesitation.

So much so, I might pick one up sometime soon.

I've been Alfaless for just over a week now ..... first time in about 10 years

And already itching!

I'm running a 140BHP Diesel version as a company car. No problems to speak of so far, just a few niggles concerning the support from the front seats and a tad too much road noise from the Tyres.

I'd have gone for the 170 Multiair if it was allowed but the CO2 rules imposed on me were too stringent even for the super efficient 1.4 TBi.

I'm sure you mate will have a ball with it, they are fine car and much more interesting than the VW derived stuff.

Anyone tried the TCT version?

Went in one on the weekend, was surprised how cheap inside felt. The switches were very flimsy.

Know just what you mean, the devil is only in the detail.
Liek last year on holiday i met (welsh soprano) Kathryn jenkins, few glasses of bubbly , ended in wild sex on the beach, in the hotel (lift and bedroom). Had to bin her though, have you heard her speaking voice - that welsh accent. Hell she might even pick her nose or fart in bed, not worth taking the risk.

Alfa only started allowing orders at the beginning of October.

What do you drive, a Phantom? The build quality is up there with the Germans.

Had a test drive last weekend, very impressed

...had a 170bhp diesel one for 1 year, 13,000miles and no issues yet. Great car, great to look at, surprisingly sporty ride (especially in dynamic mode)but still comfy as well.

would heartly reccommend if you like the look of em.

Just been to my local Alfa dealer to spec the wires - seriously impressed with the quality considering it's quite a cheap car. Loved the sporty Mito they had in and am going back for a test drive for my youngest later in the week - can't wait! Very impressed with the service as well, a changed company since my old '33.

Which dealer was that, if you don't mind naming and praising?
