Alfa Romeo 1995 146
  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Excellent value for such a spirited drive, not many people want them so they're very cheap.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    You're paying for that engine, so don't expect many miles to your gallon. Things go wrong and bits drop off, major work expensive, make sure the previous owners' bore the brunt of big expenses. Alfas don't pass M.O.Ts, ever.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Thrilling, direct steering, but plenty of role.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    No doubts on this one, it's a quick car, really flys, and that engine, note!

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not an incredibly unreliable car, things just wear down and need attention.

    A very exclusive car, regardless of how little they cost, a head turner in Rosso red!

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Firm ride, rolly handling, but seats are very nice.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    It has locks, but i doubt they're very strong. Standard alarm and red key immobiliser are very good.

    Service

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Don't bother with Alfa dealers! Specialists are much better
