We've added a Black 500 Twinair Plus to our fleet, joining the V6Q4 Brera as a daily driver & allowing our V6 GT semi retirement status along with the summer use only S4 Spider.

Anyway, 900 miles in 2 weeks an I love it. Averaging 46mpg, even driven briskly with a best 48mpg on a 160 mile run home from Swansea.

Filled it up yesterday. 325 miles for £43 over my weekly commute. In the Brera, c280 miles for c£95.

Given the roads I drive on, I'm no slower getting there either.

It's well built, well equipped, spacious & fun to drive. That & free tax!

Highly recomended.

Cheers,

V6GTA

Nice Simon.

I'd love one of these. Undecided if in Mito form or 500 though.

Having owned a 500 and driven a Mito extensively, buy the 500 it's so much better to drive IMO.

As much as I love Alfa's (we have three of them), I'm inclined to agree. The steering in particular is much more natural.
