“Lovely to drive, handles and goes like a dream, but spares are expensive to buy and minor faults far too costly to repair - which outweighs the benefits.”

“Overall, a very good car but attention to detail, particularly the interior fit and finish, could be better.”

“147 GTA V6 3.2. Awesome car, has everything that BMWs and Audis lack. Manages ‘just’ to control 250bhp through the front wheels. Chassis superb, leather interior quality superb, paintwork gorgeous, only quibbles are hard ride and soft feel of brakes, although the car stops well.”

“I love it.... looks sexy (in Alfa red), sounds sexy (especially the fruity exhaust note), and feels special to be in. By far the most exciting car I have driven. ”

“Exceeded my expectations considering the reputation Alfa have had in the past. Enjoyable to drive on short and long journeys. ”

“It's a great looking car, handles well, comfortable and cheap to run. What else is there? Reliability has been the best of any car I’ve had.”

“Only problem I've had is with the headlight loom breaking, meaning I had to get a new headlight. Few little other niggles, not at all major though. It's Italian, it's in it's character!”
