I bought my Alfa 156 2.5L V6 just by its first impression.For the asking price there was nothing close to it. The aircon wasnt working and after hitting a pothole I felt like I was driving off a cliff. Its a hard ride. I had an oil service done, but a while later the tensioner broke . 24 Valves and lots of Hours later I got my car back. I had to get a double loan at my bank for the repairs.What I like about the car...I look good in it. It has this 2nd level of performance after you hit the 4000RPM range that just whip you back and put a smile on your face.Make shure all the stamps is in its place on the service book. This is one of those classic cars that changed the way people look at Alfa.

Perhaps one of the best selling of the modern Alfa range, the 156 enjoyed success beyond anyone would have expected of it. Coupe-ish looks, stunning interior, it certainly distinguished itself from the rest.Which is the best of the range, well depends on your preferrence really. The 4 cylinder Twin-Sparks, were fun to drive and selespeed ... Read the complete review

Over the years since first passing my driving test, I have had dozens of cars and since I turned 21 and could get insurance for them most of them have been sports cars of one type or another. I have owned two convertible BMW`s a VW Golf VR6 and several Alfa Romeo`s, with the Alfa Romeos being my favourite cars by a mile. The ... Read the complete review

Well, I have now been driving my Alfa 156 for over 3 years and can hosetly say it still remains a pleasure to drive. What I will say though is that it is not without a few niggles. The first is that since owning this car I have picked up my first ever 3pts for speeding. I guess it is understadable given the immense power and ... Read the complete review

I own a 156 2.5 V6 for two years now. It's simply stunning! Let's start from the aspect many foreign people look for in Italian cars: style. It is undoubted that Walter de' Silva, the de-signer of the 156, 166 and 147, has done a great job (damn, now Seat got him!). The 156 is a very elegant car, but it doesn't lack the ...

I bought my 156 V6 about a year ago, importing it from Holland. The local Alfa dealer in UK never did commit himself to a firm quote for a car without sportpack (I do like white dials, but I don’t like the skirts, and the ground clearance is questionable enough in speed hump-infested suburbia, without lowered suspension) but with ...
