Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

I had been going through a lot of so called sportscars /coupes since 2002, never finding what i wanted-that special car, the car of dreams. Last year i happened by chance to see and drive an GT, and it took a couple of times to get what the car was about. After that i just fell literally for it. It such an individual car, for an indvidual person. Its beautiful inside and out, and the lines of the car are perfect, at any angle, you could literally stare at it for hours! It has style, character, abundance and looks. The feeling you get going out in it is like like a dream come true every time. This is the reason i took a leep of faith in the Alfa name!

What was the dealer like?

The dealer was fine, acomodating enough, as good as the main dealerships of mainstream German cars.

What's it like to drive?

Loved it! Didnt want to stop, just keep driving, a hoot in the winding countryside lanes, in town its fine. The car is not to harsh on bumpy roads, and not to soft when going quick, it feels like a good balance. With the big 18" wheels you have to hold on well though if you are on an uneven road.

What's it like to park?

Difficult, even for an experienced driver, but most coupes are. Takes some getting used to, espcially in the dark, those lovely shaped mirrors are limited in field of vision! Good parking sensors.

Have you had any problems with the car?

One minor niggle with a connection coming loose, fixed very quickly, never went wrong again. No problems other than that, starts goes...never a miss.

What's most practical about your car?

It can apparently seat four adults, and i actually sat in the back one time to see, and it didd and i`m nearly 6ft tall. I

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Favourite option- has to be the natural tan leather, and GTA 18" upgraded alloys, expensive but the GT looks devastating!
