The company’s ‘cuore sportivo’ - or sporting heart - lives on to the present day, though the company has been a part of the Fiat Group since 1986. Alfas are thoroughbred cars with a racing heritage.

Alfa Romeo 147 Collezione

Alfa Romeo 147 Collezione
Know the car : Frankly speaking, the 147 always has felt a classier piece of kit in front of their rivals and but the only drawback that the car had to a very minor extent is finishing touches which was somewhat to a lower end for the Alfa. There are also some other brands and models in the market who offer the similar cars with quite a lower engine quality but they have the better quality leather and also a good and non-scratched exterior. So, if Alfa could make little changes in their outlook and the material used in the car by just adding a beautiful leather interior, and a smarter painting job, the classy car can become classier.

Alfa Romeo Brera

Alfa Romeo Brera
Alfa Romeo’s new Brera S is different from most Italian sports cars – it’s still a beautiful Latin design, but its heart has a 100 per cent British beat. That’s because the S (which stands for Speciale, rather than Sport) is the result of an intensive year-long partnership with UK motorsport specialist Prodrive. And it’s designed to further enhance Alfa’s improving reputation among the nation’s drivers.
