as kahn said the alfa has to be on the list to drive, i was poking around one the week really nicely kitted and seemed to well screwed together the one local to me i think has 16-17k on the clock leather etc and was only £13k

Only worries is, the alfa 147 is an old car now, and alfa are probably worse than SEAT when it comes to dealers :lol:

But the engine should be solid, its the same lump they use in the Astra, so 200+ bhp should be no problem.
