2001 Alfa Romeo 147 review from Greece
"Love it or leave it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Interior dash rattles from first day I got the car. Been to the dealer twice, but seems they can't fix the problem.
Rattle sound coming from the engine mostly when shifting from first to second gear.
Problems with airbag warnings. This occurs from time to time, and the only thing the dealer does is to erase from cars memory. This takes care of the problem for a few weeks.
Very poor paint job (black color).
General comments?
It's a fast car and handles well for it's category.
I love the interior and it's fantastic design. Looks great with 17 inch alloys.
