Tips on looking after your Alfa Romeo GT

The Alfa Romeo GT is a sports car produced by Alfa Romeo between 2004 and 2010. The GT was introduced in March 2003 Geneva Motor Show and it came for sale in Italian markets January 2004.

Like the 147, the GT was based on the platform of Alfa's outgoing mid-size 156 estate (Sport wagon in this case) car, with the coupé body styled by Bertone. Most mechanicals are taken directly from the 156/147 using the same double wishbone front suspension and multilink rear setup as those two cars. The interior is based heavily on that of the smaller hatchback 147 and utilizes many common parts. The GT utilizes the same dash layout and functions as well as having a very similar electrical system. The engine range includes 2.0 petrol engine a 1.9 Multi Jet Turbo Diesel.
