1999 Alfa Romeo 146 TI review from UK and Ireland
"A real pocket rocket"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Punctured washer bottle!
General comments?
Faster, sleeker and better handling than its rivals, the 146 is one of the best kept secrets in the Alfa range. A joy to drive, comfortable for long journeys (4 hours+) and reasonable economical (400 miles to a tank). A car without shortcomings?
