Anthony: Were they rock apes in Commodores wanting to make their cars sound more powerful?

I was told by our tuning guru Tom, that folks like to use bhp as opposed to kW over in the west!

I would love to see how this car performs on the road. If you have driven Alfas before, you will note they are cars that must be driven within a tight power band. When you look at the figures of this diesel motor and the heritage of the handeling of Alfas, this sounds like a sweet package.

Should have made a hot MiTo, those things look great. Or at least a Ducati Brera. The 147 is a bit pedestrian.

And what is with the “(170bhp if you are in perth)” quip?

Looks like they put some Brera S wheels on it, or something similar.

Thats some of the clumsiest brand synergy ive seen lately, and have to agree with steven, not the most desirable Alfa in the range.

I’m surprised Ducati would put their name on something as ‘average’ as that. Its extremely dull compared to the 1098 pictured with it. Seriously, its like putting a Ferrari badge on a Vespa.
Stoners back on his game WOOOO
