2004 Alfa Romeo GT JTS Progression 2.0

Summary:

The driver's car. Cuore sportivo

Faults:

No problems.

General Comments:

Generally I think that it is a very good car.

Very exciting looks, well built, a lovely sound from the 2.0L engine that loves high revs. When I push it, every pedestrian turns to see what kind of car makes such a roar.

Sharp steering wheel, fantastic brakes. Also very good grip.

The engine is very powerful.

The cabin's quality is very good.

A BMW's reliability.

It could have a better torsional rigidity.

2004 Alfa Romeo GT 1.8 Twin Spark

Summary:

The Alfa GT is a car that stands out

General Comments:

The ALFA GT is a scandalously beautiful car, which also combines performance and practicality.

In my opinion, the GT is the most gorgeous car on the market and one of the very few real grand tourers that are also suitable for everyday use.

No other affordable car can introduce the owner to the club of luxury GTs.

Quality is now very good and dramatically improved over older alfas.

The GT is loaded with all safety features and most "extras" are included in the standard specification, which actually I bought.

The handling is superb and the brakes effective even in high speed.

However, visibility is poor and the ride on bad roads not very comfortable.

Yes, it is a beautiful looking car I agree. Everyone admires its gorgeous looks. Mine is a 2009 2.0 GT Cloverleaf in gorgeous Atlantico Blue.

I bought it February 2015, and a leaking air intake sent a message to the computer, but I got it fixed by an Alfa specialist. It also has a squeaky right hand wishbone, but my Alfa dealer sent me one for free.

The interior is high class leather too, but the air con controls are a bit fiddly, but OK.

Rear legroom is not bad either.

25 MPG round town in winter and 37 MPG on the motorway at 85 mph.

It's a full spec coupe and a very rare car with Italian character. It's early days for me now, and I hope I don't get too many problems. I'm glad that I bought one.
