If the GT was a RWD car, then it would be one of the greatest cars ever

@Shrektastic69 3 года назад

The fwd really let’s it down 😢

@kalvarsaad 5 лет назад

Actually you are wrong. Top Gear keeps jabbing about Alfas, but they actually love them.

@Strike86 7 лет назад

Jeremy is wrong. The GT is the prettiest car Alfa has made for a long time. The 159/Brera look good in photos but are flat and surprisingly bland in person (apart from those headlights of course). In pictures the GT looks slab-sided and badly proportioned, but in person it's curvaceous, sleek and dramatic, and flared in all the right places. It's perfect.

@kosapat150 5 лет назад

Thats true the gt looks better in person, its really unphotogenic actually lol

@kosapat150 5 лет назад

But brera is beautiful

@unoriginalcopy9844 Год назад

brera looks stunning in person

@ukfinsta 10 лет назад

Had my GT Cloverleaf for 3 years, it's been awesome and I still love driving it. I would rather push my Alfa than drive a BMW! ;)

@hanif12able 10 лет назад

are you a pisces ? :p

@ukfinsta 10 лет назад

lol no I'm an Aquarius!

@kalvarsaad 5 лет назад

I know what you mean. Actually i have to say that I know what you feel :)

@jasonmiller2258 9 лет назад

People who say Alfa's are unreliable either haven't owned one or have had a bad one. They are no less reliable now than any other brand. The GT is gorgeous and much more desirable than a a social conformist box like a BMW.

@alfamilano75 9 лет назад

indeed Jason, i drive alfa for 25 years and i never had any problem with my cars

@hanst7218 7 лет назад

jason miller so much bullshit man

@hanst7218 7 лет назад

jason miller look on forums from people who are complaining about their alfa s reliabilty

@hanst7218 7 лет назад

jason miller my dad owns one and he recently with low milage and dealership maintected and still the gearbox broke down 2000 euro's futher

@hanst7218 7 лет назад

jason miller alfa s are good looking cars though

@sjs2011 14 лет назад

They are right.. I've owned porsches,bmw's,mercs,audis Alfa Romeo is something else. Owning one can give the owner a very special feeling... they are special cars in there own little way.

@MrLW25 13 лет назад

Since I bought my first Alfa, I've owned no other cars than Alfas. They're abseloutely magical and joyous to own and drive.

@progames70 8 лет назад

the alfa GT 2.0 JTS was my first car and I don't have a bad word I can say about except it's a bit more expensive to maintain than normal cars, but the drive was absolutely brilliant, it was super comfortable to drive long distances with and it feels better than sitting in a bmw or audi to be honest. not to mention the car is drop dead gorgeous in my opinion.

@ErikAnkan73 6 лет назад

My first car as well. I love it!

@TwoStupidCats 9 лет назад

I love my Alfa GT :)

@ayrtonatif572 8 лет назад

mate could you please give me some info on it i really want to own one

@danielrawson465 3 года назад

Are you a Pisces though?

@Disc1 11 лет назад

In terms of reliability that is... The 156, 147, Brera, 159, GT, all great honest solid cars with amazing design. Too bad they stopped producing the Alfa V6 engines, I hope they come back some time. Probably the best sounding engines in a regular car with great performance.

@alanwhitten2208 3 года назад

I've 128000 on mine. 13yrs old. Has never missed a beat.Had 7 broken passenger side door handles, bloody kids broke them all fightin over the front seat. Love it.

@SacreDro 14 лет назад

Because the majority talk about the reliability of this brand without owning one.

@xesisoj 16 лет назад

If you drive an Alfa you drive a car with a soul, driving it makes me happy, it's constantly wanting you to get through corners faster. I drive 155 1.8 '97. It's reliable, just treat it good, not like many ppl do, cold motor and 4000+ rpm is deffinitly goeing to kill any car, but an Alfa kills faster because of that. If you treat it good, you will be payed for that. And yes my 155 sucks petrol :)

@fraguzz 15 лет назад

alfa GT one of the best looking cars around!

@MaziarPersian 2 года назад

I absolutely adore my Alfa GT. The design is a masterpiece.

@plig88luthierandelectronic63 9 лет назад

i have a ALFA ROMEO GT 1800 ts....its not so fast but on track race , its wonderfull, the brake , the stearind, the sound and the performance is great..........the driving trip to be relaxing, the style of those coupe is great..........i love this car,,,I would love to had turbo , but I have no problem..........

@chriswalford9228 2 года назад

I'm a Gemini and have an Alpha a gt sums me and it up perfectly ... two faces , plus and minus, joy and sadness, hope and despair , love and hate but for that brief moment of the space between well only you will know

@flyingphantom1988 13 лет назад

this is definately one of the best clips on top gear kudos to the top gear crew, you know they love their alfas

@mandagor 15 лет назад

proud owner of an Alfa 156 1.6TS with 95000 km over the last 9 years...I also own a peugeot 207 GT... I prefer the alfa!The peugeot is way faster but the alfa gives you the feeling that you drive a proper car that Sounds good, turns good, and looks gorgeous..... Anyone can make a car that goes straight...alfa knows how to make a car turn

@CheapBastard1988 15 лет назад

My uncle was a REAL alfa fan, apart from his first car he only ever drove Alfa's. The only reason he was OK with a 164 was cos it was previously owned and specially tuned by his dealership owner. He always modified my uncles Alfa's to make them more reliable and was racing in an Alfa on the track sponsored by my grandfather. Before his 164 he had a 75 3.0l V6 and didn't want a newer one cos they're not what they used to be!

@usqueadfinem384 8 лет назад

I Have to a AR GT - Jtd with 176 Horsepower and 365 NM - (Chiptuning from G-Tech) I LOVE MY ALFA!

@jpatt1000 16 лет назад

I have a 1985 gtv6 and i'm a cancer. I have to disagree with the unreliability of an Alfa. I drove a 1984 gtv6 for seven years (daily) and it never left me stranded, failed to start or got tempramental. Just changed the oil every 3000 miles, timing belt every 30,000 and mind the brake pads. Other than that had the propshaft doughnuts and bearing replaced once. I liked it so much I bought the '85 to replace it with only 34,000 miles on the clock and original paint. This one is not a daily driver.

@andreagiontarelli1 11 лет назад

i have this car.i love this car.

@86alfagt 13 лет назад

I have an Alfa Gt for over 4 years and it never let me down... I like it as on the first day I Bought it.

@castless 16 лет назад

The Alfa GT is the most beautiful car at the moment

@carlosoliveira5253 9 месяцев назад

16 years later, and Gt looks better and better, have a Gt 1.8ts and love it.

@oussamaibertillou409 Месяц назад

I just bought on Is it a good choice ?

@MAW-uy3rv 4 года назад

Im a Pisces ♓️ and did buy a black gt 3.2 v6 busso last week. Its the most expansive one when it came out. This car is just really fun to drive, maybe a little bit heavy on the nose but that's just it. Its still good looking today if you ask me. That engine sound is just porn for the ears and i think it's a masterpiece, even how it looks under the hood!

@MAW-uy3rv 4 года назад

18 inch Monza wheels on it😁

@andygtv 2 года назад

Brilliant design, and been very reliable no problems at all.

@54spiritedwill54 15 лет назад

The Alfa GT is the most beautiful car

@CrocodileBurgers 15 лет назад

Oh yeah, I love all the TG boys' sense of humour, they're all different but at the same time they're all great and they compliment each other perfectly. I've just started going to the TG website and reading their blogs, they're very good writers too, quite engaging.

@colmoschin78 14 лет назад

No problem in 100.000 Km with an Alfa GT!

@FlyguyIta 14 лет назад

great job!

@xovex 11 лет назад

bought Alfa Romeo GT today. I think they're probably right. In any case I feel really straigth. Great car.

@mandagor 15 лет назад

I agree that BMW turns great...But you'll find this turning satisfaction to the top range products (M3 etc) take the 116 for example...RWD but the steering is no compare to a Fwd alfa 156.

@chriscoetzee73 16 лет назад

I'm a pisces and had 4 Alfas, haha. First one was a Sprint Veloce 1.5, then a Giulia 1.6, then my crazy Gtv 2.0 and finaly a 1.8Giulietta. All I'm praying for is that they make an affordable rwd model again... it just makes for better playing!

@isaac7175 2 года назад

This car looks beautiful.

@maoerben 15 лет назад

I love alfa, would like to own one, looks great both inside and outside, only thing stop me is when I look for a second hand 147 or 156 selectspeed, i saw some of them sell cheap because gearbox break down, miss gear, and very costly to fix in Australia... is the gearbox so weak? wait for your suggestion.

@veloce192 15 лет назад

Not a Pices but have had 30 Alfas. All of them wonderful experiences. OK, some of them more experience than others but loved them all.

@FranzV6 15 лет назад

Present With an alfa GT 3.2 V6 Luxury. Thwe best car for driving in all conditions with a very very good performance! V6 is the TOP !

@215alessio Coming from an American here. I love love love my 1979 Alfa Romeo Spider. Super fun car to drive. It may not be the most fast car on the road, but it's just plain fun to drive. You all make great cars!

@robertsandifer1755 7 лет назад

I just bought one a week ago its 2004 1,9 jtd 150hp with beautiful red leather interior, only 137 000 km on it and I only paid 2900 euros for it, it runs great only the clutch is hard

@robertsandifer1755 7 лет назад

I have bose sound system also in my GT its great, I dont have turbo but I am thinking about ti chip tuning it

@rarf2142 7 лет назад

what are you talking about? a 1.9 jtd without turbo? it always has a turbo

@robertsandifer1755 7 лет назад

Robert u mean a trurbine yes i have it, but u r wrong not every jtd has a turbo

@GuiTaRMaNiaC557 7 лет назад

what do you think the "t" in jtd stands for mate

@robertsandifer1755 7 лет назад

Rik van Dijk its for turbo i think

@MilitantOldLady 14 лет назад

@alfistii1 i bought mine from a bloke who got it from the local police who sold them off because they got new ones....he restored it completely, and "pimped it" a bit...he got it for 6 grand, restored it for 1.5 grand, sold it for 7k it has the 2.0 diesel engine out of a transit van, which is as reliable as a plough horse, he also installed an LPG kit, which makes for great runing costs i've had it for 3 years now and all i had to replace on it was the odd light bulb and a squeeky door hinge

@Vasco994 10 лет назад

Possono dire quello che vogliono ma la mia GT è grandiosa, ,,,ho pure modificato la centralina e aumentato il n° di cavalli ...va che è una bellezza!!!

@Gianluca911GT 11 лет назад

Alfa romeo gt great car !!

@LogiForce86 14 лет назад

I have a Lancia Delta mk2. It's almost completely an Alfa under the bonnet. With other words, I can exchange more then 50% of the parts with Alfa parts. I must honestly say that I haven't had any issues with my car. Nothing else then issues which other cars also have. Exhaust, clutch, tires, brakes, whipers. The things that simple wear out basically. I have to say that I always give it a big maintenance service one year and a small one the other, next to the MOT checkup that is. :)

@Garibanmarti 4 года назад

Which episode ?

@gaffor87 15 лет назад

they are very reliable! i have this car!!!!! its freaking awesome! 240hp!

@87sprintqf 15 лет назад

the selespeed has had some problems in the past - it also needs regular maintenance. Do yourself a favor and just get a manual. As long as it has been looked after properly they are fine..

@laggr 14 лет назад

Same here got a GT on 100k miles. drives perfectly! my brothers got 2 alfa's aswell 147's and they are smooth! ALFA KICKS ASS :D

@arqui-gt 14 лет назад

I have an Alfa GT. 100000kms and still's runing perfectly! Never had a problem! And fast to hihi :p

@dazaar 14 лет назад

Ha, I've had my Alfa 156 3 months and replaced the alternator -a mission involving dropping the rear of the engine and removing the RH drive shaft- and replaced the fuel pump, which cracked and filled the cabin with gas fumes.

@Matsuda26B 15 лет назад

I think he does know what he's talking about, because he clearly has much experience in this field, since he's been doing it since 1874. Obviously, it doesn't mean that there is a 100% chance of every single Alfa to brake down, but the truth is, and I also talk of personal experience, he is absolutly right.

@xese4lifex 13 лет назад

I would like to own a old Alfa Romeo except that I live in the States and finding one is probably impossible.

@Brera011 14 лет назад

I am Taurus for as long as I am on this world since '54. I had a lot of cars, Simca 1501 (who remembers that one, is of my age), Ford Capri, BMW 520, Citroen BX and many more. They all had their charme, but now I've owned 3 Alfa's and planning to buy the 4th in next year. Value for money, but Alfa gives you a little extra, PLEASURE PER MINUTE. Never had 2 cars of the same brand, until I bought my first Alfa (a 33 btw)

@MilitantOldLady 14 лет назад

@alfistii1 i am not a german car fan per-say...we (my family) have owned 3 alfa's in the past decade...starting with the verry same you have, then we had the 2.4 jtd facelift and after that the 159 1.9 jtd, full spec...got it cheaper because it was a showroom, pre-registerd car in the dealership...we had that for a year, then swapped it for an E class (not an amg sadly) but an e class none the less however my personal car is a 1993 land rover defender, but thats another subject

@Georgeous129 14 лет назад

i think the front of the GT looks like a veyron. when i walk around and i see one from distance, i always think i'm about to see a veyron

@spasticteapot 16 лет назад

I don't know about the Falcon and your other aussie-specific Fords, but the Mondeo and Focus are both well-built cars. (It's the Fords where I live - in America - that you need worry about.)

@sspope 15 лет назад

Actually, you're wrong. Alfas are getting more reliable these days.

@englongbow 16 лет назад

There (10 year old ones) reliable but not cheap to run, my first car was an Alfa 145 TS and its lucky it had charm that car.

@Quickspear 17 лет назад

ahhh... I love Alfa

@CrocodileBurgers 15 лет назад

No, I haven't had the opportunity to read any of the TG boys' stuff, think I'll have to look out for them though. We used to have a huge shed a few years back when all of us were living at home, we each had our work areas in the shed and I always kept my stuff neat, tidy and categorised (eg different screws sorted out into little tubs whereas the boys would just have them all in one big jar), it was annoying when the boys couldn't find their own stuff so they'd "borrow" mine and never return it!

@dazaar 14 лет назад

A well-maintained Alfa is as reliable as any other European car. If you are slack it will know that you don't love it and respect it and become a hand-grenade and blow in your face using its cambelt as a fuse. I love my 156
