How cool is this. Alfa is going up in my books. 1.7 turbo delivering 230bhp in car not much bigger than a Mini. Out next summer, the small hothatch market is about to be shaken up!

MEGA swish :cool:

Just looked again and I've got a semi.

Torque-steer tastic.

Looks lovely.

but knowing alfa it will not materialise or will as a shadow of what we see here

They came through on the 8C so fingers crossed!!

its got seat leon undertones - i suppose this is just coincidence :Suspiciou

To be honest I was thinking the same. I thought it had some form of resemblence to both the current Astra coupe and Leon

I like!

The two Top Gear-esque quotes on Alfas are the ying and yang of ownership :-

"Every petrolhead should own an Alfa at some point in their car ownership career"

"The dealers are unfriendly, incompetent and clueless. which is a shame, as you'll be seeing plenty of them."

Truest quote from me "topgear talk ****"

front view of the car is a little weird. there was a big writeup in Car this month. Still a cracking car!
I want one.

Damn that looks good.

Driver Republic are reviewing both the Mito & Scirocco GT.

Hope I haven't ordered the wrong one.

Would be a great package if they coupled it up to the Q4 system...

Or if they just made it RWD. Bar the BMW 1 Series, there isn't another RWD hatch out there, surely thats a big hole in the market.

Where did the 230bhp figure come from, the website only says 170, is the gta not on that website?
