Hi all, im thinking of buying a 1999 alfa 3.0 sportronic, just a few questions.... what mpg would i get, the car im going for has air bag light on , one rear door lock doesnt work with central locking, and cd multichanger is brocken, are these a popular wear and tear or is this a bad sign of electrics starting to go wrong? ive heard bad points with these cars concerning electrics
to be fair the alfa is quite old, so expect a few glitches. as long as you can live with them. depends on how cheap the car is,if it's less than a grand just drive it and enjoy, expect 22-25mpg though.
i bought a 156 jts for £250! was a good car ,never broke a thing in 9 months and sold for £750!loved it

What a ridiculous response to a quite well worded part reply to your question.I was amused by the response to be honest.
It does strike me as odd that people look at cars like the 166, which is a fine car by the way, then ask about the fuel economy of the 3.0 V6. If economy is important, then I suggest you look at the 2.0 TS instead or even a 156.
CEDGTV!!!!.......thats real cute you sticking up for horn, but i'm affraid you sound more stressed than he was.. oh dear ced, so do i really have to tell you what action to take???? yes thats right CEDGTV follow the advice i gave alfahorn as he sounds alittle more helpful and relaxed today, now run along co's this is between me an horn. Horn, im going to look at the 166 tomorrow, so you may see more of me on this forum to your disappointment, then again any advice much appreciated

Ok then!Good luck, hope you know what you're looking out for when you view the 166.
i hope the mods get hold of this ridiculous person and boot him from the site. a rather amusing comment taking completely the wrong way by someone who is obviously too tightly wound to own an alfa, whats he going to do when the rear demister packs in? hopefully he'll buy a bmw and then leave us all in peace.

LolMy original post was serious. Yes, I was also thinking Alfa ownership is not for him.
