Alfa Romeo Romeo 164 review covering 1988 - 1997

Wednesday 15 March 2006

The years have taught me a thing or three about performance cars and performance saloons in particular. The first is that, though many of them go very quickly, most of them shouldn't. The second is that high-speed is very different to high-performance.And thirdly? Well of course, the most exciting performance cars are almost always made in Italy. Though responsibility isn't high on the agenda in the land of pasta and Chianti, the concept of creating the true driving experience certainly is.For proof, take a drive in Alfa Romeo’s 164. Getting an executive five-seat, four-door saloon to look, sound and handle like something you’d have bought in your irresponsible bachelor days is no mean feat. Better still, these day’s they’re available second hand for not very much money.
