Apart from the CX3, we currently own a 20 year old micra and a 10 year old Brera, which is my fave car.
Have only owned a selection of Fords and Fiats over the years.

Do you still have the Alfa?
Always thought it a very attractive motor.
Car sold - but still following Mazda.

Yep, still got the Brera, a bog standard 2.2 JTS petrol. When I bought her, I never expected to be able to afford her. She is not the most practical of cars but damn pretty. She is a great drive on the open roads and still enjoy her. Would I buy another Alfa - yes, but which one?

I've had 5 Alfas, loved every one, but the pick of the crop were the two 156 2.4 JTD Veloces. What an engine that was, 5 cylinder 175 BHP diesel in a small car, wow. Averaged 55 mpg and on a 300 mile round trip I even managed 73 mpg. Performance was outstanding. For those who complain the CX3 is a hard ride, spend an hour in that Veloce and you will consider the CX3 to be a limo.
