Alfa Romeo GT road tests and consumer car reviews

Alfa Romeo GT 3.2 V6 2005

Best car I have ever had in over 40 years of driving. Other than the torque steering when you put the boot down, it can range from being a sedate town driving car, a great large item carrier (fold the rear seats down and it can carry an integrated oven!), to a heart thumping all out racing car! If you do not tramp fully down on the petrol pedal, it returns over 30mpg. Cruising at 70 on the motorway in 6th gear produces nearly 40mpg. Acceleration from 50mph is fast, sure and very safe. Cabin is well made with room for 5 adults (normal size!). Servicing (yearly) is moderately priced and mine has been extremely reliable. Overall it is a great car with fantastic looks and that truely Alfa Romeo V6 sound.

Alfa Romeo GT Diesel 2005

Hi I own a 2005 GT diesel and it’s a great car to drive. Unfortunately my passenger side seat belt keeps getting soaking wet and the car has been to the dealers on two occassions to try and rectify the issue. It does not matter how good the engine is if the Alfa like the 147 & 256 fill up with water and rot within a couple of year. Come on Alfa it’s time for re call to sort this out.

Alfa Romeo GT 1.9TD 2004

Excellent car, my first Alfa so I was a bit concerned by the sometimes negative comments relating to older models. No problem, the car has been great, pleasing to look at and to drive, I have never regretted my decision. Even six years later it still looks the business (in Black with Tan leather), I have now done 80k plus miles and it still feels like I’ve done only 8k. Not one squeak or rattle not withstanding a lot of miles covered fast on less than good roads and I would recommend one to anybody. A Top Car!

Hello John, I have been looking for a new second hand car the past month and just today I found a car that fascinated me, the Alfa Romeo GT from 2004, the car it’s in good conditions and it has 100.000km on it. I wanted to know first hand about its driving experience from somebody that has this same car from 2004 and whether you recommend I make the buy? - John Giron from England

Alfa Romeo GT 1.9 JTD 2005

Beautiful car, fantastic handling. The closest experience to a racing car. (I’ve driven Reynard´s on the racing track). Zero problems - my car has done 68,000 km.

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.

This car looks fantastic, is extremely reliable and is good value for money. Definately one of the best coupe's available in the UK.
