2000 Alfa Romeo 156 Selespeed review from UK and Ireland
"The best looking car in its class"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Delivery - N/S head lamp washer not connected.
6000 miles - water in the boot - rear windscreen sealant problem.
8000 miles - City switch on the Selespeed failed.
General comments?
Brilliant design, looks good from every angle! And the touches only Italians can bring!
Performance and road handling have brought a smile to my face (well! my last car was a Honda CR-V).
The dealer (Hylton Worcester) has been excellent (they did not do the PDI!).
A bit twitchy in town - but on the open road it is FUN!!!
