Hey, I want to buy a new car and I have a problem: I like the Alfa Giulietta damn well (optically). I’ve never sat in it but I’ve seen it a few times from inside and outside. Now I would buy the smooth as 1.8L gasoline (the 241 HP version) but you can hear rather little good about Alfa Romeo. Many say that this has improved dramatically in the last few years. Anyway, I’m not sure. As alternatives to the choice: Opel Astra OPC, Golf 7 R, Ford Focus ST and Seat Leon Cupra. From the optical inside as well as outside it would become the Alfa with me. How is the processing compared to the others mentioned? Does the Alfa make more ticks? And how long-lasting is it compared? Performance-wise, it is the weakest but the 241 PS enough for me. So, please not cite the performance as an argument.
