This is by far the best looking hatch on the market, really love the alloy’s on the Q2 & the sliver wing mirrors. The 16v JTD engine nice and punchy, MPG pretty good, the diff really digs in on the corners. The rides a bit too crashy at speed & it’s developed a nasty squeak which I can’t locate. I would buy a Alfa again although depreciation is a killer on new Alfa’s. I would probably buy second- hand next time.

Love mine too - inside and out. Yes the Sat Nav is out of date but it does a reasonable job. My car was imported and came with the wrong steering wheel and, since being sorted by the importer, the car has developed a few squeaks - a pain for a car less than a year old but hopefully I can get it sorted. But that’s my only gripe. Yes, the paintwork was damaged on delivery, so was an alloy and I had an oil leak but it’s all been sorted and it never seemed like a problem really because we all wanted to sort it out. My girls hated the idea of me buying but, the day it arrived, there view totally changed and has remained so. I suppose that’s it really; it’s great to drive, really comfortable, mid 40s mpg, good looking inside & out so it’s little foibles are forgiven (I had a Peugeot before that I nearly returned it was so poor so I do know bad when I see it). I’d buy another tomorrow.
