I guess Alfa and Fiat is just like Audi and VW. Audi's arguably look better but you pay a premium for it.

The bravo is a good looking car, shame they didn't do a 3 door, I would have had the 150 tjet over my 120 punto otherwise
Is it just me that thinks the giulietta rear lights look like the new astra?
Which design house do vaux use these days?
Alfa have used them all, Bertone, Pininfarina, giuguaro,

I was only kidding when I said it 
It looks miles more stylish than most other bland stuff on the market. Like the Astra...

I want a remap to be completely honest, not silly power just a nice drivable power curve, it's got fuck all low down unlike my Ibiza had... but it goes keep pulling high up the rev range. Still returns an average of 49MPG though 
Mines like that
My mate has a pd130 Bora, he reckoned it was quicker than mine till we had a race
them VAGs feel alot faster than they are, his pulls from 1200 to like 2500, Mine pulls from 1850 all the way to 4850
exactly all the old pD units feel faster than they are due to shite power delivery

no not at all. I like A3's but you cant call everythign else bland and not consider the A3
Its very very bland IMO and the badge does wonders for it sales
The A3 is a good car

i wouldnt say the 1 series is bland mate - Its cuts such a divide in peoples opinions on whether they like the looks
For that reasons alone its not bland
Dont take it so perosnally. IMO your car look bland
