1996 Alfa Romeo 145 Quadrifoglio review from Croatia
"It's a Quadrifoglio - what more should I say?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far so good.
The 100.000 km inspection was extremely expensive (250 EUR just for spark plugs, total cost including rear shocks - over EUR 800 + labor).
The front suspension is very sensitive to bad roads.
General comments?
Awesome brakes (standard with Ferodo pads).
Very good handling.
Engine: even better than the flat-out performance is the unique Alfa sound effect!
Marvelously picked gear ratios.
Absolute top of the line design, even today!
