Alfa Romeo CHALLENGE | Top Gear

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Top Gear trio's attempt to make their one thousand pound Alfas look good come hilariously unstuck as they line up on a race track against some speedy, and frankly, much more reliable cars!

    tdc1991x Nope, the three just said what they wanted to and did what they want, it's why the new top gear sucks, because they're not as creative and funny as the old trio. The only thing scripted in top gear is their schedule.

The GTV for example just FELT so responsive and lively! The 156 v6 2.5 litre sounded AMAZING. Yes, the Maserati is obviously a much higher caliber car, but a car is a lot of things and Alfas give you this amazing feeling of being driver centric and, for their price, are amazing

    i could of gotten lucky with mine, or you could of gotten unlucky with yours, also you need to realise most of the things you named are things that have to be replaced on a regular basis on pretty much any car, like the leather or the lambda sensor, for example i did have to replace the lambda sensor once (cheap fix), i have an aftermarket exhaust so i cant say anything about the rust, my gearbox works well, the only leather that looks a little worn is the one on the steering wheel ( cheap fix), badges look good, dashboard lights look good, water pump never gave me any problems. not every car is the same. oh and i did have problems with my sideskirts but only because the roads here are shit and i damaged the mounting points after hitting some potholes pretty hard. every car has its flaws, i am not saying it is perfect but it isnt unrealiable either.

    I own two cars a Honda Jazz and a Alfa Romeo Montreal and I will never get rid of my Montreal it's not the most reliable it's not the fastest but what it is, is pure italian magic and my car I know it I fix it and nothing is better for a gear head than that feeling when you are doing 120 on the highway in your car

    In the Spider, you only have to think of a corner to make it oversteer. It has a live rear axle, very little weight in the back, and therefore hardly any rear-wheel traction in corners. My favorite of the three, given they were in good condition, would be the 75

    It’s just how you maintain the car, if you have a little knowledge or you do every maintenance work they’ll run forever. My 3.0 V6 Alfa 75 reached in march 500.000 km, now aiming for 600.000. The problem with alfas is just that everyone expects them to be as good as bmws and Mercedes’ while treating them much worse. If you treat a bmw like you would treat an Alfa, it won’t even reach 100.000.

    As an Italian, I can say one thing, my father is a true “alfista” since the 60’s, Alfa Junior, GTV, Giulietta, Alfetta, 33 sw, 164. I’ve always been on his cara since I was a baby.. the engine of a 2.0 v6 busso modified will deeply remains in my soul. Everything they saying about problems is also true. I remember on garda lake’s highway in summer running at 200km/h in the 164 and the rearview mirror felt down because the glue that was keeping it up just did’n’t kept it. imagine this was a 65 millions Italians Lira at this moment.. probably comparable to a 45k € today. Anyway my friends still loves my father because when we were young they wanted to come in my father’s car because the émotions were strongers than they’re parents pussies Mercedes cdi

    Anyone can say what they want about Alfas, but typically the bashers know little to nothing about them. I've owned over thirty cars in my life, including four Porsches, but I only drive Alfas now. I have the most fun in them. And the person who said they were s*t in the '80s... really? The GTV6 and the 75/Milano were fantastic drivers cars, and I'd take a 164S or Q over the 5-series of that time. All my Alfas (I'm on my 5th) still ran and looked like new well past 100K miles. Their engines go forever if maintained. Whatever else, they are designed for fun, and they succeed.
