Used Alfa Romeo Cars for Sale near Calgary, AB

The most important thing about a car, is that it keeps you smiling, and my Alfa does just that. I love it - a great drive, still gorgeous and maintainance is low. Would buy one again, if it was still made. update: I would be a Giulietta today the 175BHP version with the sports-package, but I am still very happy with my 156, despite the rising maintenance cost, but those are predicitable on a 10 years old car with 200K on the clock.

Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon 1,9 JTD, Progression trim, 2004, imported from Italy in 2008, beautiful Giugiaro - facelifted version, looks even sportier as Sportwagon body. Gives enjoyable performance from JTD engine (275 Nm torque) with great fuel economy. It's fun to drive, after all it is an Alfa Romeo !

My first and only Alfa so far. I absolutely loved it, I'm planning to buy the Giulietta 1.4TB or one of the JTDMs in about 3 years time. Performance: Great throughout gearbox, being short geared, I found the 205/45 R17 fitted to the car didn't have enough give in the side wall for Manx roads, so I changed them to Perelli PZero 215/50 R16. Also fitted Eibach anti-roll bars, Eibach shorter springs, and Powerflex bushes. Due to upping the engine power I also fitted a Quaife LSD to cope with the increase in power and torque. Build Quality: The interior did squeek a little. Other than that, I found no major issues, as she was serviced when I bought her. And many mechanical parts I uprated. Appearance: My one was Potero Red, not so as eye catching as the Royal Blue, Alfa Red and Yellow ones that dot around the Isle of Man. My one had front fog lights, 16" alloys from the 2008 GT, satin silver door mirrors, and the large boot spoiler. Cost of Owership: I bought mine for £1750, with a completary service, full tank of V-Power, new set of Toyo TR-1s and a dyno run for an extra £50. Spent £60 a week on V-Power (if only commuting to work and back). £1100 to insure for one year. Spent £750 on maintenence. Spent £3500 on uprating parts. Sold for 4500 Euros in southern France. Fun Factor: Loved every minute of it, mates loved being in her, listening to her, looking at her. And it got a lot attention from the opposite sex (giggidy!)

Alfa Romeo... just saying the name brings back memories of my gorgeous red 156 2.0 TS. That car is just so beautifyl to look at, it handles well (for its size) and is reasonably fast compared to its class mates. Build quality was better than i feared, but i did have my garage visits, but all was covered on the warranty, and it was always stupid things like the airbag light that turned on for no reason. The engine worked flawlessly and with the italian stainless steel full exhaust and cat-back system it sounded awesome!

A true driver's car. Very rewarding if you treat her nice ;-)
