1989 Alfa Romeo 75 Turbo America review from UK and Ireland
"Great rear wheel drive fun!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I bought the car it had 2nd gear synchromesh wear.
At 140400 kilometres the fuel pump failed.
At 145000 kilometres the valves needed regrinding. (it had been stood for a few years previous)
That's all (so far)
General comments?
Can be a bit thirsty.
Pretty quick for a 16 year old car.
I find it very comfortable and relaxing to drive on journeys.
Although it is left hand drive, it is a delight to drive.
The only bad point really - heavy steering when parking (no PAS)
