2005 Alfa Romeo 156 TI review from UK and Ireland
"A great car to own and, especially, to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The speedometer had to be replaced at 9,000 miles, as although it worked fine, it was delivering the wrong information to the on-board computer.
General comments?
A reliable, enjoyable, agile car that always leaves a smile on my face. I've owned it for 15 months and it is always a pleasure to take it for a spin. The engine is superb, delivering torque and power in an seemingly effortless manner, and achieving 46 mpg on regular motorway journeys.
