pretty tasty!

£5k :shock: bargain

IMO Opinion, you cant beat Alfa's for there interior. MMmmmm ;)

ive been out and im a little late, has it broke down yet lol

Nooo, not an Alfa Romeo!

 

Dad had a GTV.....gorgeous motor, inside + out....

 

But boy, those italian cars are nothing but trouble they break down easy, the insurance is wayy overpriced!

i must admit im a big fan of the 166, keep thinking about getting one as daily drive.

a 5 series makes much more sense really but cant help falling for the alfa's charms...and that interiour is simply gorgeous

he is picking it up on thursday so i will see it then.

the insurance is not that much at all considering engine size.

The interior looks great doesnt it. He says it has white stiching which you cant pick up in pictures which can only look great.

like 166's because of their rarity but never been sure about the front profile. looks like it is about to cry! the superlusso's are brilliant car. he reckons with the body kit it would of rolled out of the showroom for £35k so 5k is a steal for something in the same class as a 5 series!

Think alfa's reliability is a bit overblown nowadays (obivously not going to touch our nippon reliability) and i would trust one over a ford, vauxhall, french or korean garbage and a new merc anyday. The specialist garage network is outstanding. If i get this job in wales i would consider make an offer for his 155 to suck up the miles between west wales and london that i would have to do every week.

Very nice :)

I bought a 3 year old 156 2.5 V6 with leather and every extra for £4200.

It was around £27K new! :shock:

Gorgeous car, wish I still had it.

Might buy a 156 Sportwagon next when I get some cash together.
