So I have bought a diesel Brera.......With my job changing and moving to Bristol the 645 was just to heavy on fuel and this diesel Brera came up that needed some love and care. It has great history with all Alfa stamps with belts etc changes on time. Mechanically she is fine...69k miles on the clock and 3 owners. There are few cosmetic bits for me to do over the coming year to get her up to standard though.
Lots of stone chips and road rash on the bonnet so that needs painting, both side skirts has road rash so needs painting and at the front of them the paint has peeled off...Wheels need a re-furb but would have always got them changed from silver to anthracite anyway. The interior is pretty good apart from the drivers side bolster that needs stitching and then needs a good detail to get rid of scratches. Also need a boot badge as it's faded......So all cosmetic although after and good wash, polish and wax from a distance she looks OK. The engine is pretty torquey and feels pretty quick....very nose heavy though. Still think they look great and I have found myself just going out to take a look at her just for the h3ll of it..Such a pretty car.....plus it has 6 months warranty which is a bonus. A good daily drive to be honest and special enough to be sat in as to not feel boring.....
