Bloody hell, that's gorgeous.
Not to sure about the interior though, but it sounds like you're very happy.
What does it sound like?

Worth the wait then smile

Looks absolutely stunning. My Dad has just picked up his 159 2.4 Jtd, took it out for a hoon last weekend and was seriously impressed. Fantastic engine and really quite quick too. (200 + bhp ?)

I just love the new Alfa front end, the lights and grill are so aggresive.

Hope you continue to enjoy it.

Eta, the Alfa V6 Jtd diesel sounds very undiesel like too which is nice.

24mpg you have been hooning biggrin

Very good looking car! Small convertibles can look a bit camp but those lights make it look much meaner!

Car looks great.

Before I bought the S2000 in December 2006, I was looking at the Alfa at the time.
Seems like Alfa still designs and makes a car that draws attention on the road. Looks Fab.

Red paint colour looks even better!

that is a stunning looking car, no doubt about it. the only slight thing is that i still really don't get/believe in the idea of diesel engined convertibles/coupes, especially lovely looking ones like this, its like an angel with a black heart IMO!
still, as long as you like it that is the main thing smile
enjoy!

Now that is absolutly beautiful.
My god, them italians have made a great looking car.
And that diesel engine, prepare thyself for some serious mid range power.
And you know what, drive it sensibly and you will get some rediculouse fuel consuption figures.
But seriously, diesel engines are the way to go, even in a sports car.
It's the punch that i love.
2000 ~ 3000 rpm, that baby will fly.

The word stunning is used too widely now-a-days, causes a misrepresented definition.


However, this is a fine example, stunning!

Thats lovely. The Spider really does the the Brera type design justice as it gets ride of the rear pillars, which are the biggest problem with the Brera. I nearly bought a Brera a year ago but would now really consider the Spider.

The engine is brilliant, I had a 159 for a 2 day test a while back and whilst I didnt buy it the engine as just great. Have fun.......

From someone who detests the look of Alfas, that thing is beautiful. I want one. There you go, I said it.

Looks top.

Stunning.

One question... "full chat", "on boost"... brand new... did you mean to write this on a public forum?

The new alfa range looks the nut's. looked at a new 147 but by the time i kitted it was Golf GTi money.

Just one thing really why buy a convertable Diesel?

absoluetly gorgeous

the new alfas are one of the only new car designs i truely love, and the spider just hits the spot! the 2.4 5 pot jtd engine is a dream (and thats coming from a disel hater of the highest order, but i am slowly converting)

get the beastie remapped after a while, will still see great mpg (should remain pretty much exactly the same) and have more power and torque... yum!

Lovely looking motor, congrats. wink

Still can't understand why you'd buy a Diesel Sports Convertible though! confused

Each to their own I suppose, enjoy italian motoring. wink

Certainly a big improvement on the older model. What's the performance like?
