Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTD

...IT? The 147 is Alfa Romeo's compact hatchback, produced in three and five door forms and competing in the Ford Focus / Vauxhall Astra market. This is actually an interesting, diverse and most popular market sector now, outselling all other types of car. The competition is fierce and many of the alternatives, such as the Honda Civic, are new and bang up to date. In 2001 the Alfa 147 was voted European Car of The Year. WHICH SPECIFIC MODEL? The ...
...the top of the Alfa 147 tree. It is a five door 1.9JTD 150 Lusso. The 1.9JTD 150 has the most powerful two litre version of the now ubiquitous GM (Vauxhall / Saab) engine in it, which was co-developed with Fiat, parent company of Alfa Romeo. IN WHAT CAPACITY AM I REVIEWING THIS CAR? OK, hands up, this is not my own car. This review is the result of an extensive test drive at the Millbrook Test Facility in Bedfordshire, I was attending in my capacity ...

Review of Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTD

Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTD 3dr Lusso You probably just don’t understand Alfa's and until you sit in one-you never will… Just bought an Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTD 3dr Lusso and on first impressions I’m delighted. It’s Navy Blue in Colour which sets the car off great against the Cream Leather, its a top of the range model and comes with SAT NAV, Cruise Control, Telephone, full heated Leather Upholstery, trip computer, 16inch Alloy wheels etc. The options ...
...buying, yet decided on the Alfa 147, because it put the biggest smile on my face, it was the nicest car to sit in and felt the best to drive by a long way. The Golf mk4 GTi felt its age, and although the Golf mk5 1.6s that I drove was nice it was very basic compared to the Alfa and more expensive. The Astra 1.8 (new shape 06) was nice to look at but a rather dull drive, and the focus was dull to look at but a nice drive. But as I said earlier, I ...

Review of Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTD

...weekend I test drove an Alfa Romeo 147 1.9JTD 16V(140 BHP). This review will be split under several headings, and each heading will be rated out of ten - ten being fab, 1 being bad. First Impressions: 10/10 This car is pure style to look at from the outside, the car body has a slight concave shape in the doors and all along the side - this gives the car an immediate sense of style and sensuality. The car exudes confidence and individuality from ...
...I test drove had the Alfa Red paintwork - a nice colour! Driving and behind the wheel: 8.5/10 All the major controls such as the headlight and the wiper stalks are mounted on the steering wheel column which means easy operation and you don't have to take your eyes off the road. Another lovely feature I found was that the sun visors had illuminated mirrors - great for touching up the hair when you've just come out the shower and need to get to work ...

Review of Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTD

I have had this Alfa since October 2004, it has been ultra reliable, I have covered approx 16000 miles since I bought it, and it hasn't gone wrong, or nothing has fallen off it. It is quick, very fuel efficient, more so than my Peugeot HDI Dturbo, looks sexy, drives fab and is a great quality and characterful alternative to the boring VAG group products! Customer service at the Alfa Garage has been perfect, and is cheaper to service then my 206 HDI Dturbo. A great car, with a great following. ...

...can also choose fuel engines, they cost less but you spend more in Fuel. The diesel engine consumes a very small quantity of diesel, and if you respect speed limits, you can also do 17km with a liter. If you are planning to change car, buy an Alfa Romeo!: ) ...
