Glad to see the Alfa's of new still have something in common with the Alfa's of old  ;)

Surely just marking it's territory? Showing it's dominance over the Shitroens.

Well i didn't get to drive but as a passenger it was pretty cool! Interior was quite nice (the dash won't appeal to all) but the instruments and steering wheel layout should.

The ride was really good, it seemed to cover bumps without any issues, not a huge amount of road noise and once the engine was under boost it has a nice note. It's a quick car though! Picked up speed very quickly and torque steer didn't seem to be an issue.

I was told the gearbox has reasonably quick but precise changes and the brakes were awesome (massive brembo's should help that).

Overall i really like it, would of loved a drive but was happy to tag along. The only thing missing was a quad cam V6 under the bonnet ;)
