Are lovely 
Looked at one this morning, spoke to the salesman for ages, really raving about this one, passionate about it.
Went out in the demo vechile, a 1.4 155bhp Turbo, REALLLLLYYY fun to drive but out of my leauge really. DNA switch is good fun 
Looking and thinking about it more and more, realistacally could afford a mid-spec one on a 59 plate (Sept.)
What do people think of them?

First car I've seen for a long long time that I thought that is perfect!
Spec'd really well as well.

Mito GTA has peaked my curiosity but every Alfa owner I've ever known has had constant problems with something or other. From a repeated bulb failure to a whole engine failure. I'm not confident I'd like to own one tbh.

I love them. SO much character in a small car, and lots of cues from the 8C. I'd have one.

Found it a far nicer drive than my VAG tbh, on some pretty dodgy roads as well (forgotten strech of the A4 between maidenhead and reading)

Think it may have been then. Biggish smart standard alloys and lowered at a decent level, standard looking. Must admit. I actually stared at it. Thought it looked lovely!
