Well today I count myslef as among the "gob smacked".
I have just been advised by the manager of Ayelsbury Alfa Romeo that it is perfectly normal for modern cars to break down within a year of ownership and that 4 times in 1 year isnt a surprise.
My Alfa 156 2.0 jts has just gone into safe drive mode and told me that it is knackered, for the 4th time, I bought it last February. It's been into main dealers twice and it has gone phut 3 times in the last 2 months.
If only Alfa could sort out the electrics and make them reliable, then they wouldnt lose 50% of new value in the first year. I'm gutted, I like the car but no longer trust the make or type. I may well have to plump for a boring Focus or new astra. Even my old TVR S was more reliable than this heap of crap.
