Did you get a good deal and why?

Was at the time of purchase the cheapest 100hp on Autotrader, got a service thrown it too.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Wanted a small car to save some pennies but also have fun. Did my research and the 100hp made sense. Took it for a test drive and I was smitten!

What was the dealer like?

Local Alfa dealer, really pleasant, let me cane it on the test drive, met my expectations

What's it like to drive?

Great, fantastic, so nippy, weighs next to nothing so in sport mode with the six speed box it's goes really well. Good MRG too, over 40 so far

What's it like to park?

Small car makes it easy, mirrors are a touch small, but no probs really

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing, 2000 miles in 2 months.

What's most practical about your car?

More space inside than you think. Fitted me and 3 mates in for weekend away.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Trip computer is good for fuel light bingo. But its the Sport button, makes it handle a bit like an old Peugeot 205 GTI, but without the lift off oversteer.
