2002 Alfa Romeo 156 GTA review from Sweden
"Best car of the decade"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Parking-lights twice.
General comments?
Having owned/driven Volvo, BMW, Fiat, Mercedes, VW, Ford, Citroen, I have driven nothing but Alfas since 1990 (33, 155, 156, 156 GTA). I must say that the latest one is the best of them all. Makes me smile on each ride.
Fast and quick, superb handling and stylish like no other car. Really for someone who wants style and performance and personality. Would not replace it with any other car!
