Well I can say the VR6 is much quicker than the alfa and I know from first hand experience after owning both plus the golf gets more attention.

I don't need to, modern Italian cars do not rust like they used to, look up mot failure rates and you will see what I mean.

Look up component failure rates, warranty claims and figures from the largest breakdown services and you'll see alfa right up there, always have been and always will be unreliable poorly made rubbish.
