1999 Alfa Romeo 145 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

My 145 had 1.4 written in the back, but I think those guys from Alfa Romeo exchange my engine to a 1.7QV or something... It was so fast that sometimes it was scary enough to press a little the brake pedal, like "wow... hold your horses, kid"!... For me, the worse thing of the car is that you can't drive the car slowly with some pleasure :( The consumption is around 8-9 liter each 100km and the mechanical parts are not very expensive. The handling is wonderful, with precise steering. However, the brakes use the ABS too much often... It's beautiful outside and inside! Alfa's designers toke care of all minor details to produce a car that makes your eyes smile :) The overall built quality is very good too, although some finishing details could be better. Ergonomically, it has at least 2 things I point: the radio is all down in the bottom and the seats are made only to people with long legs :(Jul 30, 2010
