1999 Alfa Romeo 156 1.8 ts review from UK and Ireland

Intermittent Indicators.
Poor Idling.
Faulty Electric Switches.
General comments?
This car is fabulous to look at and to drive with surprisingly excellent fuel economy.
However the worry of what is going wrong is always with you and there is poor support from Alfa dealers to help you.
