Alfa Romeo 146 1.9 Jtd

Advantages: fantastic fuel economy
Disadvantages: alfa still having qnnpying electronic problems

...We bought a new Alfa GT when it was first released in Uk so we have it for 18 months now. The fuel economy is fantastic, we can get nearly 50mpg on a good run which more than double my other car. It looks great and always turns heads. Road handling is very good even in icy weather and as we live in the county with lots of bends, this is important to us. It is a comfortable if a little hard on the ride, but you would expect this of a sports coupe. It has 5 real seats not 2+2. We can get 2 child seats in the back with space for a small adult too; and enough boot space for a family shopping trip or weekend away. I can even get a full set of diving kit in the boot...and that is a lot.... Read review

Advantages: Sporty Estate
Disadvantages: Not large load carrier

...I loved this car. Bags and bags of torque. Unfortunately I bought an import thinking it was the 150 BHP model but it was actually the 138 model. Mine was silver with the red leather interior which we could not live with. My wife only drove the car once and instantly took a disliking to it. She never did want me to buy it in the first place. However I am now looking for another, possibly the facelift model and with lots more power. Now 175 BHP as the 1.9 JTD now has 140. This car has bags and bags of character. Won't hold much in the way of bulky loads but I would rather have this than the equivalent Audi A4 Avant or BMW 3 series touring for a far lower price.... Read review

Advantages: I'm Lovin IT!
Disadvantages: NO ONE!!!

...My boyfriend and my bro either got this car. My bf has the 1.9 jtd 115 cv, and my bro has the 1.9 jtd 150 cv. I don't know if you ever had a conctat with this kind of car. I mean, it is just Wonderful! It has a great line, outside, and inside the design it's perfect, really accurate, with everything you can desire from a car. The engine it's really silent and it "calls" you to accelerate. You can choose between 5 different type of preparation: distinctive, progression, exlusive, blackline and selespeed. They change basing on some optional, such as alloy wheels, be zone clima, inside covering, etc. Exlusive it's the full optional kind, distinctive has about every optional, progression it's the base line. I really like this car, and it goes really fast if you choose 1.9 or higher engines. And also if they are diesel they have a lot... Read review
