hopefully!!

I quite like the looks and had a Lynden moment of "do I want to go from a barge to a tiny hot hatch".

 

[Waitey]

Mito's are about the size of an S3!

 

[Ian_182]

Will it be having 240bhp.Nice if it does...

 

[Gally]

I'll reserve judgement but I love even the standard alfa mito.

Alfas are f**king cool. Hero's and mental petrolheads own Alfas!

I've never seen one stood still, so hard to make the judgement, but if you say so!

Yeah, 1.8T with 230/40 from the writeups.

That looks awesome.

 

[Englebert]

Have been a bit disappointed with the standard Mito. Looks fantastic from some angles, but not quite right overall. Hopefully those arches on the GTA will make it look as good as it should have in the first place.

Agreed, the wheels kind of fall into the arches more on the standard one and they sit a little higher than the press shots would have you believe. The GTA could be a real alternative to the 500 abarth ect..

Oh I didn't know the Ferrari Abarth had so much power and a paddle shift! Must be a pocket rocket!

Alfas are the kinda car you hope your best mate buys so you can have a drive in it without the long term worry!

Precisely what happened to me! He bought a Brera 3.2l Q4. Fourth day, he got in the car, put the seatbelt on and got drenched! The garage head mechanic described it as "Alfaritis". FLOL.

Munson will not like...

LOL my best mate bought a 147 GTa for 7k. In 8 months it cost him £3k in repairs. He traded it in for £5.5k.

f**k that s**t.

 

[JD]

The black one that you helped out with a while back? FTS indeed!

[Gally]

"What to do with this piece of s**t Alfa?"

 

[JD]

now way are mito's the size of an S3 my dad has one and it feels more cramped than my clio in the back im not sure if its because of the windows in the back not letting light in but its really not that big. its just a posh punto

 

[mwn11]

I thought this got canceled?

 

[dalla]

Yeah this will not be made?

I seem to recall you joining the alfa forum and mentioning you were wanting to scratch the alfa itch and was interested in a gta? And this was after slating how unreliable "your mates gta" on here many many times ?

 

[jamier27]

Sadly this was shelved "temporarily" but if citreon can make a 23k ds3 can't see why alfa can't opt to build a stunning mito gta 1100kg 240bhp .....
