1999 Alfa Romeo 156 TS review from UK and Ireland
"subtlety sexy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust, heat sheild came away. inexpensive repair.
General comments?
The look,the feel t, he drive-ability, it's a joy to drive.
I went from a 1.6 LX Escort to an Alfa & the difference is out of this world (unsurprisingly). I've had it a year & still look at it & drool! No serious problems to date, but in all honesty id forgive it anything. As a regular motorway driver it 'does' bmws no worries. The engine handles motorways like it was made for it & country lanes are what it seemed built for. Comfy interior, very easy on the eye. My next car will certainly be an Alfa Romeo.
