I loved my Alfas but,depending on the reserve, that's not good enough value to make me wet myself.
The colour combo isn't great although I love that red leather.
It does sound like its been pampered but it's all about the price! If you could get it for under £2k then I might be tempted but there's loads of bargains about at the moment especially with Xmas coming.

[DuncanM]

Too expensive surely?

Alfa 156 is a great bargain at the 800-1500 mark imo.

2.5 V6 all the way!

[SD1992]

That is a horrible interior!

Keep that E46 of yours, that is a much nicer car.

"IF YOU WIN THIS FOR UNDER 14.775 GRAND THEN YOU'RE ONTO A WINNER."

Please tell me he means £14.77(and a half pence) and not £14,775.

[anonymous-user]

A bmw diesel or an alfa diesel. I would have the Alfa diesel.

But if i had to get an Alfa, it would have to either have twin spark or V6, just seems wrong an Alfa Diesel.

BMW yes, double glazing salesmen need transport, but an Alfa, just seems wrong..

Treasured and cossetted it, yet can't spell the name of the tyres on it correctly.

And your point is?

[DanielJames]

The car is my mates dad's car, he has spent a lot of money on it to be fair.

Need to resist...

That he's got so little interest in the car that he can't even be bothered to go a check the sidewall of his tyre.

Easy... just keep asking yourself "Do I want to look like my mate's dad?"

Unless he is The Fonz, the answer is probably "no".
