Alfa Romeo Romeo 146 review covering 1995 - 2000

Wednesday 15 March 2006

Alfa Romeo’s five-door 146 introduced Italian flair and elegant, flowing lines to a family car market, that had previously expected only practicality. As the direct successor to the company’s 33 range, the 146 was further evidence of Alfa’s rebirth as a maker of sensible yet, still characterful cars. The 146 first appeared in May 1995, offering buyers a wide choice of four-cylinder engines. These were initially the traditional ‘boxer’ style, carried over from the 33. Later, powerful ‘Twin Spark’ units arrived; offering better refinement and performance.For the used buyer, any of these cars makes an interesting and sensible buy, particularly when you consider the vastly improved quality and reliability compared to older Alfa products.
