    the more i see these on the road, the more i want one.

    only thing i dont like about them is the chrome surrounds on the lights.

    that kit looks ok but i dont like the wheels at all and white does not do it justice either.

    looking forward to seeing a gta!!

    The Missus has a black one, the chrome can be optioned out from new, save a few quid and have black plastic instead but seen one without chrome and it looked cheap! I'd also break a leg for the Alfa wheels in 17inch, 16s look swalled up in the archs...

    You should be looking at the Clover leaf multi-air engine, talk about innovation!

    A GTA one would be cool, V6.. in the back!!!

    If the GTA one comes out I may chop my GTA in for the Mito. But I still think it looks more of a 500 on Steroids than a proper hatchback Alfa.

    At least the 147 is a decent sized family hatchback and it has the V6.

    I don't see a Mito being much faster than the GT anyway - when it is fully sorted

    and only 350 147 GTA's were sold so it's gonna be a bit of a collectors item.

    I can imagine the MITO marketing going mad and them ending up quite common.

    But - it's never going to beat the Arese 3.2 V6 for sound, linear power and grunt from 1.5K to redline.

    They are everywhere, the missus got hers brand spankers first month of release but shes not so happy as we see quite a few about now.

    It is a variant of the Grande/Corsa platform, so its not an Alfa thorough bred. Engines nice though for a town car, she test drove the turbo one and it scared her, woman shouldnt have turbos, so its for the best

    my old fella almost got one of these too but the cheapy plastic interior put him off, said all the various models he looked at were the same.

    he did say he was impressed with the build quality of it compared to the grande punto that he looked at though.

    A gta with nice interior and some of those huge alfa pepperpots, oooh yes please.
