New Alfa owner, one of only a few I see
Discussion
God Alfa make pretty cars, I could live with one of those quite easily.
I currently have a banger 146Ti which is a cheap runabout but thats very nice.
oh, erm, don't break any keys. I did (getting it out of the ignition barrel was a job and a half) and a replacement is £150 from a dealer cos of all the electronic gubbins inside

And ya know what? I got it for £1300 which is about 300 too much, I got a full leather interior front/back seats and 4 door cards for £180 and wishbones complete with bushes are about £12 each.
It'll do 350 - 380 on a tank, got a cd autochanger and costs £300 to insure fully comp.
Its 4 door and roomy in the back, decent boot size so practical and 'a nice colour', as my wife puts it.
Its a great second car.

Hi and welcome to Alfa ownership!
I have a 156 V6 and it has the same colour combination as yours (black & grey leather) although she's year 2000 and a bit tatty with it (perfect running gear) One thing i recommend you do is look after the black paint! No mechanical car washes, as the paint is quite soft and swirls very easily!!

Sounds just like mine - 156 V6 2000 wagon. Proper workhorse, chipped nose and the odd small scratch, but she's sound and I love her to bits.I have a 156 V6 and it has the same colour combination as yours (black & grey leather) although she's year 2000 and a bit tatty with it (perfect running gear) One thing i recommend you do is look after the black paint!
