I have owned 2 Alfa's in my time

75 3.0 V6 veloce
155 Silverstone twin spark.

Neither put a foot wrong,yes they do feel a little flimsy liek they are going to break,but they never do....

Much more reliable than people would have you believe..

Have to agree with you on this - I drive a 16 year old 127k mile 2.0 GTV as my daily driver, and in the 31k miles I've put on it, Its only let me down twice. (Clutch slave cylinder and crank sensor).
 
Even if the Alfa breaks down twice as often as a VW or BMW, then you'll find it probably costs half as much to fix as a VW or BMW.

I found that many of the replacement parts for the GT were more expensive than BMW. I guess each Alfa is different.

Yep :roll:
 
The dealer where my Abarth comes from sells Alfa's as welll, and they sure are beautiful looking cars but they are seriously pricey.

I would have one - but with warranty.
 
I had a Brera as a Hire Car a few years ago. It looked good and as I remember it felt good. However in the few days I had it bits and bobs stopped working and I remember thinking how glad I was that it wasnt mine!

It only had less than 4K on the clock.
 
I’ve had 3 Breras prior to a Z4, the last being the ‘S’ 3.2 ProDrive version which was fabulous. Had it for 6 years and 60k miles and hardly put a foot wrong. No different to buying any other car, it’s a risk that something may go wrong and cost you (out of warranty that is). I wish I’d known about cracking alloys before I bought my Z.
