Alfa 159 Saloon - genuine family car?

[G-Rich]

Hi,

As per thread title really... is a 159 suitable for 4? 2 adults + 2 under 4s? I've an eye on a 159 T1 (2.0D) that is almost remarkably available through our company car scheme! My nearest AR franchise isn't close, so I can't get over there easily to check one out, but will asap - presuming any comments are +ve.

Thanks
R

we have a 159estate, 2 kids 5 & 8, plenty of room, great car but don't belive the mpg figures, ours is slowly going up, at present on about 35 average.

The 159 is aimed at that market, so it really aught to be OK for your needs.

From the one week I had one as a hire car I certainly didn't have any issues with space.
