Alfa Romeo 156
- Thread starter Pittsey
- Start date
Be warned, Alfa's are prone to breaking down and if I am to believe the ToPGear survey, the dealers tried clients as manure.
They are "nice" cars, though. practical and lots of fun to drive. Basically, Alfa as always.
Top gear survey (which is UK only and from the last few years, so could be relevant to you) rates Alfa 156 as such:
Engine/Gearbox Reliability 3/5
Electrical Reliability 2/5
Brakes/Suspension/Steering 2/5
Fit/Finish 3/5
Squeaks/Rattles 3/5
Performance 4/5
Handling 4/5
Comfort/Praciticalty 2/5
Customer Care 2/5
Ownership Costs 2/5

Being in America I could't say I've seen one of those except outside video games and shit. Not even that car exactly but just Alfa Romeo period. I'm not to fond of the looks. After reading that review also I wouldn't be too sure about this. Truthfully I'd hate to be in your position right now, deciding on a car, fuck that.
