Alfa Romeo's sporting heart, or ‘cuore sportivo’ has long been part of the collective global image of Alfa Romeo. The sound of the engine, the elegance, the Italian design, the vitality. These are all icons that are uniquely Alfa Romeo. It has been said that Henry Ford used to doff his hat when an Alfa Romeo passed.

Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTDm Lusso 2007

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 Yes the Sat Nav is out of date but it does a reasonable job.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.

Alfa Romeo 159 Sportwagon 2008

I have the 1.9 jts engine... black with black leather interior. The Sportwagon is just a big joy, it’s like owning a piece of expensive art for everybody to see on the roads. Giugiaro worked his magic here, I can definitely say this is the best looking estate car in the world and even better looking than its sedan version. Sportwagon, as its name suggests, has a powerful yet elegant ’sporty feeling’. Function-wise, it has some not too well thought areas inside.. like the sunglasses mini compartment on the roof, even a classic Rayban won’t fit inside so I only placed the remote control of my garage there. The cup holder area is right under your arm, if you want to switch gears it is a problem but these things you can forgive... easily! The engine is silent and very Alfa-ish... inside of the cabin screams "Alfa, Passion, Italian, hmm leather, Coooool!!!" The element of luxury feeling is there and there is enough legroom for everyone. The design is here to stay for some years hopefully. The Alfa Romeo Sportwagon will be considered one of the best looking cars Alfa created, ever. And again hopefully the most reliable one but time will tell about this... Well done Alfa, keep up the good work... Waiting the same magic for the upcoming 169.

Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 Jtdm Tourismo 2006

It’s just a wonderfully sexy car. Attracts attention and on top of that power is at starting point. Drive the equivalent cars in other makes they don’t have drastic power generation as the Alfa does, but for me I need a looker!!!!

Alfa Romeo 159 2.4 JTDM 2008

ITS THE BEST CAR THAT YOU CAN GET BY FAR, My one is actually the TI version but any normal 159’s will compete easily with the best looking sporty BMW’s, Audi’s or Merc’s so imagine comparing with the TI, tut just out of comparison. I advise everyone to drive the 159 just once before deciding on any compact saloon. KEEP UP THE WORK ITALIANS!

Alfa Romeo GT 1.9 JTD 2005

Love the car, my best yet even with a failed cambelt (repairs and courtesy car paid for by Alfa even when out of warranty!!). Averages 47 mpg on the motorway too.

Alfa Romeo 159 2.2 JTS Lusso 2006

My third Alfa (after 155 and 156) and certainly the best. Solid and comfortable, yet great fun. The best possible compromise between ride and handling (only BMW 5 series comes close) and the best break pedal feel of any car I have ever driven. Drawbacks: unnecessarily short 6th gear (3100 rpm at 70 mph) and slight thirst for petrol as I struggle to get more than 31 mpg. Anyone looking to buy a BMW 3 series: don’t before you test drive the Alfa; you will be surprised!

Alfa Romeo 166 2.4 jtd 1999

I bought this car with 247000 km and 7 years old. Fabulous driving experience and amazing sound. Sixth gear comes in handy enabling an economical drive, consuming only a 19.7 a liter. However, the turbo engine,cruise,steering assistance and superb breaks may tempt for sporty driving . brilliant seats and high comfort. Model and design of interior and ’street looks’ are among the top of the market. speakers in the back are far from impressive. Superb handling and fast in corners. Even in the Dutch climate never had any trouble with engine or starting. electronics of left window had to be replaced at 249000. Aircon sensors needed fixing and homokinetic as well. Minor issues for a great driving experience.The best car I ever had. Even though I resented disposing of my good old Rover 620SI, which in fact was a BMW with Honda engine:)

Brilliant little car - good fun to drive and looks good. Service can be expensive, but don’t let that detract from the fun.

Alfa Romeo 147 1.6 TS Lusso 2002

The 147 is a very enjoyable car and at six years old still providing very reliable motoring. I have had all sorts of cars including three Audis, a Saab, two VWs and a Jaguar (it was rubbish) and the Alfa is as relaible as all of them and much better fun to drive. Other than service costs, the only repair has been the back bushes - replace them with the polyurithane variants and they will last for a long time and give better handling. The ride & handling are far better than others in the class I have driven and the engine is wonderfull when wound past 5000RPM. This car really puts a smile on your face and has style in spades. If you are thinking about another bland badge from Bavaria, treat yourself to a car with real pedigree you never know, you might enjoy driving again.

AN Other, England

Alfa Romeo 147 147 Lusso 2002

Looks good but: Service very expensive. Last service > £1200 for a 6 year old low mileage (42000) car. Unreliable. Several ’collapses’ labeled ’engine control centre failure’. Very expensive to fix. Piston fracture requires new engine at cost of >£3000. At 6 years? Never an Alfa again.
