Picking up a Giulietta cloverleaf on Friday... Already booked in for the 290bhp remap :)

Bit sad to see the Brera go though, good looking car.

been looking at brera lately, but decided 159 makes more sense, rear seat space looks limited in the brera....did you find that?

A mate of mine has a QV, its good, pretty quick even as stock, but he did say that the gearchange learning ecu was a bit annoying at times.

He and his miss's both drive it, very differently, but it seems to take a whole to learn hence it feels like its changing differently for ages, almost unpredictably :?:



Kev, our Josh will be selling his 159 2.4 lusso soon i should think ;)

i'd really need an SW mate, plus it'd be beyond my meagre budget i'd think too :(

really what I want is a 159 2.4 SW turismo, so it has cloth seats ;)

So, spent a fortune on Alfa's already this year!

This is my QV and bought my daughter a Mito Veloce.

Not a bad first car for her!
