Alfa 147

Drove a 2 litre 150 bhp version today, was surprised how slow the car felt- thought it should have been a flier. My Audi 130 TDi would leave it sitting ( sorry everyone but I dont set the company car list- would have preferred 75 CDT- though with a few more horses than 114)

Did it rev James - you may need to rev the 147 to get the best out of it - pretty little thing though!
Did you test drive the CDT? I believe the engine is a torky unit. That's what the other half says anyway!
It had 5000 miles on it but didnt seeem that willing to rev, but maybe the diesel has changed my driving technique!!
