2003 Alfa Romeo 147 Lusso review from UK and Ireland
"A Sporty Stunner - forget the A3"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alarm first too sensitive, now not working at all. Dealer tells me it needs a replacement motion sensor, which is a common problem.
Radio lost all settings, but now seems to have rectified itself.
Leaking passenger door. Dealer tried and failed to repair once.
General comments?
Great looking car - easily forgive the initial niggles.
Needs high revs esp in the 1.6 but plenty fast enough without passengers.
Great handling, firm and sporty.
Useless dealership, no courtesy car available for two months!
