Some people I have spoken to who have owned have said they had no bother at all. Others said don't touch with a barge pole. Like Natalie Imbruglia, I'm Torn.

Hit and miss with Alfas.

Electrics CAN be a nightmare.

If it has full service history and has been looked after, it should be ok. Take for a test drive, test every button, make sure it works correctly.

Engines are strong, but they do go if abused and not maintained, hence the SH.

The 2.0 16v engine is a belter if your looking at that. 150bhp, but pulls and pulls like my old vauxhall redtop.

Alfas are GREAT cars IF you find a good one. Otherwise if you get a bad one, it'll be a money pit and u'll curse and spit on the Alfa name.

Looks nice.

scoobs how odd - I am looking at a 147 at the moment

and numbersa platts that dealers u linked to - I can walk to there in 10 mins from my house !!

I'd take a 206 - pretty comfy nice design, quite nice to drive. Only downside is french build quality but you'd get that with a 106 or saxo anyway. Better than a fiesta for styling in my opinion.

147??

Well according to Embee's link, Scoobs should buy a Prius!
