Alfa Romeo 156 Saloon 1.8 TS Veloce 4d (LT) (2000/X) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Bought second-hand. A real bargain.
Costs
Insurance is a bit steep (in Northern Ireland anyway!) Hard on fuel, especially when pushed.
-
On the road
Driving
Handles extremely well.
Performance
Nothing much happens below 3000rpm. Get above that and the sound... marvellous. Still wish I'd bought a 2-litre!!
-
Living with it
Reliability
Only had it 5 months so the jury is out.
Image
Just love opening the curtains in the morning to look at it!
Comfort
Driving seat has to be fully back for me (6 foot tall, so not a giant) Accelerator pedal is also really far forward. OK when you get used to it.
