1999 Alfa Romeo 156 V6 review from UK and Ireland
"It's not the most economical car in the world, but well worth what I paid"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At the moment nothing has gone wrong with the car, but I've only driven 1500 miles.
There is a full service history carried out by Alfa dealers.
The only problem I have is that I am having trouble getting the 4 digit security code as the battery has been disconnected.
But I think my local dealer can help.
General comments?
The sound and feeling of the V6 engine is fantastic.
The knowledge that there's plenty of power at your disposal give a sense of security rather than fear of it's potential.
It's turned a few heads, not bad considering the design is now about five years old.
Everybody at work wants to drive it!
