I need a 4-door and I do around 16k a year, so a diesel seems best. I've always loved the Alfas and the 156 is one of the better looking.
My criteria are that it must have a diesel engine (1.9 comes in 115, 140 and 150hp flavours - any will do) and it must have the leather interior, because it just has to.
Sounds like it ticks all your boxes and you say you love it so yeh... get it.
Just be careful of the normal things. DMF clutches are expensive to replace, the tyres may be expensive and the known egr issue isnt great but it sounds like youre pretty set on it!
