1999 Alfa Romeo 166 Super review from UK and Ireland
"A 4 door Ferrari!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The automatic wind screen wipers failed.
Rear wheel bearings failed at 20000 miles.
Brake discs are beginning to wear.
Fuel gauge failed, but started working again.
General comments?
The driving experience is superb for such a big car.
The engine sounds gorgeous, it's quite loud for a modern car - that's not a complaint though!
The interior is extremely comfortable.
The 166 is very well equipped.
The styling receives lots of positive comments.
The rain sensitive wipers are a useless gimmick.
