Bought a Brera !

[mr wilks]

Finally joined the Alfa ownership ranks after 28 yrs motoring .
As linked in earlier post i took it for a testdrive & wasn,t disappointed , actually surprised with the build quality & cabin feel ,s exceptionally nice .
Definitely a garage queen in the making & hopefully see it over the channel at some point this year

Deposit down & collect tomorrow

Congratulations I did wonder if you had got it as I checked the link and that motor had gone, I would love to own an Alfa one day too, enjoy it

Nice looking car on the outside. Not quite so sure about the inside.
Is this a keeper then?

 

[Adamski]

All petrol heads should own an Alpha at one point

Its a keeper as in i have no intention of selling it at least not this year
I did mention the trim colour in another post & this sounds cliched but it look,s much better in the real with the orange part looking more tan & the car really suits it .
I appreciate the marmiteness of it but i went with open mind & loved everything about it some nice touches like full panoramic sunroof plus the mirrors fold away with the remote locking which ive never understood why the german brands have never done ? Always pisses me off having to put the key back in our A6 to do it if i forget before switching it off
Did think about the 3.2 but i,m just not into £500 a yr roadfund on a 3rd car we don,t really need 8) the diffrence is 2 return ferry tickets

Congratulations Andy

I see the alloys look good, so don't think you will be changing them soon ...... or do you have something in mind :wink:

Enjoy it mate

 

[Taz]

Hhhmm , some grazing here & there so a full refresh at some point i would think
Alloys are a V6 upgrade on 18,s & very "Alfa" so no intention of changing them with 4 almost new tyres as well

Only problem is choosing what colour to go for Andy :roll:

I give it a month before one of them changes :lol:

Nice - Love the exterior colour, and i adore anything with more headlights than wheels
If it really does look 'more tan than orange' then on the interior too

 

[jaRED]

May have to meet up and see it in real life. Guiseley has a soft spot for a Brera. Need to see Taz too - it's been ages

 

[Wyldie85]

Ah sorry, I thought it was a 159 from the other post you made about the interior!

Congrats on the purchase! Lovely car and like the colours as I said.

I test drove one a while ago and was really underwhelmed, I then drove an audi straight after and the audi was loads better. However after not wanting another bmw I opted for an M3 lol.

U change ur cars more then i change my p̶a̶n̶t̶s̶

wheels

 

[horseofwar]

Like the looks of the Brera, sure it will turn a few heads!

Good luck with ownership, if it's anything like my Giullieta then you might need it!

 

[philip27]

Looks great I like the interior looks smart and something a bit different.

 

[LeeZ4MR]

some nice touches like the mirrors fold away with the remote locking which ive never understood why the german brands have never done ?

My mirrors fold away on my 330i when I lock it but it is the only bmw I have owned that has done that though for some reason.
