Alfa Romeo Mito (2009 - 2018) 1.4 TB MultiAir (170ps) Cloverleaf 3d Owner Review

Bought a Cloverleaf Mito due to it being different from the competition, liked the looks and the one I bought was spotless. Fun car to drive, especially on back roads in Dynamic mode. Ride on 18" wheels is bumpy but didn't mind at all. Had 4 suspension faults in the 2.5 years I had the car, the worst being a leaky rear shock which was £650 just for the part (active suspension)! The Blue and Me system is pretty good, when it works, which was most of the time. One thing to look out for is full service history, if the oil is not changed regularly (very specific oil required) the MultiAir unit fails and that is very costly to have replaced. Quality of the paint finish is poor, mine was red and I understand these are the worst, lots of stone chips on the bonnet and rear wheel arches. I have now sold the car and replaced it with a Mini Cooper, the difference in quality is very noticeable. I really enjoyed the car while I had it but won't get another.
