Something which is both a positive and negative point is the relative rareness fo the 155. Positive being not many people as them so you ... ...avaliability.
On to reliability and I have to say all was going well for a year and in that time all I had to get was a radiator which I knew was going when I bought it. But after a year a bolt holding the engine sheared, clutch went, starter motor went, handbrake started playing up, headlight cable broke etc. Parts are resonable new but as stated before limited second hand.

Now onto the running costs. -Parts Average really, Seciond hand not as readily avaliable - Fuel Consumption, About 30miles per gallon. - insurance, Well I am 25, 4 years no claims parked on the road and it costs about £650 a year

Advantages: Own a great italian cult car for low used prices Disadvantages: Not many around, so spares hard to come by.

5, Electrics are not always good, my electric sunroof wont open and the heated rear screen works when it wants to.
On the plus side, You get a great looking, fast, 4 door saloon with a good sized boot that drives like a sports car. ...
