Yet another "What Car" thread

[RetroPug]

The thing with the alfa is, is that its such a lovely place to be, the seats are like memory foam tbh, its a very small steering wheel aswell which makes it feel very sporty? If you know what I mean. Mine is on 182k and ive just replaced the turbo, which was original, ive got full service history, and its never had any major work done, minus the usual wear and tear items. Even on the 2.4 10v I have thry map upto 190bhp easily and still return 50+ mpg on a run, my average is about 46 and im heavy footed lol

Normal servicable items are cheap as its the same aa the vauxhall 1.9 8v engine with an extra cylinder, a full service kit, timing belt and tensioners, and water pump cost me 130 odd quid.

Oh and the sound is amazing even with a standard exhaust (only backbox and cat as standard) and air filter.

That does look pretty nice.




Thanks for the heads up about the seats. I'll definitely have to wriggle about in them and do a good test drive.


Anyone know anything about this model of astra?
