I used to have a 147 2 litre selespeed. The car looked a lot better than it drove. I liked the fast steering but the handling was similar to a mk4 golf ie stodgy. Not what you'd expect from Alfa really. The interior was nice though and the std Bose stereo was much better than the Gti's
Design looks dated now though and as you can see from my pic, it rides too high and the sills look unfinished. Interesting, that the concave styling feature down the sides found it's way onto many cars after the 147 was released, and still does.
