      How many miles does it have? I’m used to Toyota and Lexus where only thing that’s been done after 200k is fluids and pads, but Alfa Romeo sounds and looks nice and I kinda want one bcs of what you get for price 😂

      I heard it’s about the popularity of the car. People here in the USA are scared of buying this car as it’s European,especially if it’s from Italy. Costs for parts are expensive and reliability of the vehicle. This car can reliably if you do any preventive maintenance.

      No you shouldn’t be worried these cars are relatively bullet proof, I’ve driven mine over 17,000 miles and now have about 35,000 miles altogether on it and haven’t had a single issue with the power train. It’s just as reliable as its German competitors trust me.

    • @AllThingsCars2006
      @AllThingsCars2006  10 дней назад

      Here’s the thing, buying any car with over 100,000 miles could be a gamble, however with that being said, these are pretty solid cars, and if it feels good/the maintenance records look up to date, then I say go for it! It also depends on what they’re asking for the vehicle price wise? If it’s a good deal, then I would totally consider it

    Do the seats go down in the back? I heard some low in option cars can't fold the seats down.
    I'm seriously considering buying a secondhand 2L petrol Giulia in the next few months. I currently own a MK7 Golf GTI Performance which I very much like. Would I forget about my Golf quickly? I miss RWD and the Alfa seems like a fun car. Is this car faster or same level on performance? I don't want to downgrade offcourse.
    Will testdrive one for sure.
    Thx

    • @AllThingsCars2006
      @AllThingsCars2006  5 месяцев назад +3

      To answer your questions, yes the seats split in a 60/40 manner, and yes you’d forget the Golf in a heartbeat! I think the Alfa is a slight step above in every way, performance, luxury, amenities, etc. The RWD Giulias are definitely a little more fun but if you’re looking for sheer performance, the AWD is the way to go. It is a car that has a soul and will put a smile on your face everytime you drive it, I promise. Once you drive one, you’ll understand exactly what I mean. Definitely an upgrade in my opinion!

    I don’t know what mechanical background you have, but a very well known problem with 2017 cars is a leaking radiator at the top right as you stand at front of car, or by drain plug, so common Alfa redesigned it, 2018 on should be better, yet you don’t mention it, very poor, as the whole front end has to be removed to fit a new one.
