Hi I need to buy an Alfa in December/Jan.
What do you know about the 159 Ti with a 2.4d under the bonnet.

Also does anyone know much about this Ti model...
I have a 159 1.9 Lusso at the moment and its 18 months old with 60k on the clock and its been very reliable. I need to replace it due to the mileage.

Any extra's I can have on a Ti? Is there a boot spoiler available? Ipod kit available?

Does anyone know the answers and can help and advise me please.

Thanks

Robertf

....dealer?

Saw a Ti last week at the dealers and looked fantastic in alfa red. Interior looked really smart too. 159 is really growing on me.

Spec it with Blue&Me (if it's not part of the Ti spec already) and you'll be able to plug your ipod into the USB socket.

They're great cars and my experience with the 2.4 has been great so far.

There are no options on the Ti and just three colours - red, grey or black so it's a question of just seeing what the dealer can get hold of. It does have Blue & Me as standard. Great looking car!

Guys

Thanx for all your input...
Bought a grey 2.4d one today. I added the rear boot spoiler on as an option.

They do a Q4 version (4wd one) but none in the uk until March now so mine is the 2wd.

I'm going to be a naughty boy and chip it though... apparently you can drag 260bhp from it.. but i dare say the 2.4 standard at 210bhp is quick.

This is the only ever car ive bought without driving... although I do have a 1.9 159 Lusso so they cant be that much difference...

The seats in the Ti are to die for though...

Thanks again you guys.. have a lovely xmas and a happy new year.

Sam

The Ti is the best car in the range, all the engines are good. The ride quality isn't too bad and you're right, the seats are to die for biggrin
