Don't see many Alfa Romeo's about these days.

Alfa are making some terrific cars at the moment, f. I have my glw driving a Giulietta Quadrifoglio; it's a charming little thing.
The Giulia Quadrifoglio is undoubtedly rapid and apparently highly chuckable, but Alfa appear to be touting it as some sort of M4 beater. If you're looking for BMW build quality and up to the moment technology, the Alfa will disappoint you, but it has a charm and charisma all of its own.
I wouldn't own one out of warranty, of course.
I am just thinking for the future. My wife seems to agree to any Italian car purchase. Especially as her dad owned about every single model of Fiat Lancia and Alfa.
I will keep my 500L for a good while yet. I have one complaint about it though. I can't see the speedometer properly as the steering wheel gets in the way.
It doesn't get much use I only use it on the weekends.
The Grand Tour covered the Giulia Quadrifoglio in one of the episodes towards the end of the season. Take a look at it on Amazon Prime or you should be able to find it somewhere on the internet. I think the general consensus of Clarkson was in line with Sir C that it is a cracking car but it will have something that will annoy you or let you down on it at some point. It is an Alfa afterall.
