Few modern Alfa Romeos combine Italian style, character and
driver appeal quite as effectively as the Alfa Romeo 147. Winner of the European
Car of the Year award and widely regarded as one of the most attractive
hatchbacks of its era, the 147 offered distinctive styling, a premium interior
and the wonderfully free-revving Twin Spark engine that became an Alfa Romeo
hallmark.
This 147 2.0 Twin Spark Lusso is powered by the lively 1,970cc
Twin Spark petrol engine coupled to a five-speed manual gearbox, a combination
that delivers an engaging driving experience while retaining everyday
practicality. Finished in light metallic blue with a contrasting black leather
interior, it remains a particularly handsome example.
Being the desirable
Lusso model, the car benefits from a generous specification including heated
seats and a centre armrest, helping to create a comfortable and well-appointed
cabin. The stylish interior is a reminder of just how special these Alfas felt
compared to many of their mainstream rivals.
Showing just 48,316 miles,
this example has clearly seen relatively light use and is accompanied by a
useful history file. Included within the paperwork are the V5C, MOT valid until
July 2027, nine previous MOT certificates, the original handbook and a selection
of invoices documenting maintenance and upkeep.
The car was driven to the
sale and it has been starting without issue during its time with us for
photography and video duties, giving a reassuring indication of its
usability.
Increasingly appreciated as modern classics, good Alfa Romeo
147s are becoming harder to find, particularly low-mileage examples with the
sought-after Twin Spark engine and Lusso specification. Combining attractive
looks, a characterful engine, low recorded mileage and a long MOT, this charming
Alfa Romeo offers an appealing opportunity to enjoy a stylish slice of Italian
motoring.
