Looks lovely very tempted.

That looks decent, however bear in mind that unfortunately with with Alfas you tend to spend more time picking up the bits that fall off the car than actually driving it... lovely cars but they have never been famous for their reliability.

3.9 seconds
Whoosh I like it. I haven't noticed that model before

Pity it is not 4X4 though, you could get a 1992 VX Cav GSI 2000 16V for under £20k, just from a dealer in Norfolk according to Pistonheads, it takes a bit more than 3.9 seconds but would last longer, even now!

thats mostly a clarkson-ism/80s alfa issue.
modern alfas are reliable, albeit not built to the same standards as the germanic competitiom

They do a Stelvio with the same engine in it.

They do a Stelvio with the same engine in it.

That thing is not a nicely proportioned sedan/saloon though, and a lot of choice in that sector.

My other half has an Alfa Romeo

She has had the car now two years and she does 1000 miles a week. The car is currently now on 115,000k
Apart from a split boost hose and a broken rear shock absorber, touch wood it's been a brilliant car.
I was afraid of Alfa because of issues until now.... I would buy one no worries, but I'll stick to my Audi
