1991 Alfa Romeo 75 3.0 v6 Qv review from UK and Ireland
"Really Fast 4 Seater"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Changed radiator at 58,000 miles.
2nd gear sincromesh went on the gear-box at about 59,000 miles.
Changed front and rear gear-box mountings.
Head gasket blew at 62,000 miles.
Slight wear on drivers seat causing the crumbled sponge effect.
All in all a great car.
General comments?
This is one of if not the best V6 engine in the world, talk about sound, this car has an orchestra under the bonnet. Having fitted some stainless steel racing manifolds and getting rid of the Cat and fitting a 3.5 inch stainless steel Tig Welded exhaust this baby really sings over 3000rpm. And the throttle response is phenomenal compared to standard, well worth the £1000 price tag.
To date there has not been any other car that puts that sort of huge smile on your face when you give it some.
The torque on this car in any gear is fantastic.
The cars best acceleration kick in at about 70 mph then it really starts hammer right up-to 140 mph. (had the car on a track)
