Alfa 147 recond value/price

[flavalava]

Hi all,

I'm currently looking for a facelifted 147, and it seems very difficult to get one these days.

I recently found a seller (independent car dealer) who has a 2006 147 2.0l, recond from japan, 70k+ mileage, but with a price tag of RM125k! [smilie=umm.gif]

I think it's overpriced and i want to bargain as much as i can. I tested the car and fell in love almost immediately due to the roaring engine note, lol. Condition is tip top, accident free, clean engine.

Can some here give me some advice on the value and fair price of the car please? thanks...

perhaps i need an alfa technician to follow me for a test drive again, so that he could roughly judge the actual condition of the engine and the whole car.

I remembered in those days 80s,

If you want your Alfa to be in good engine condition,

You gotto really run it in speed, take it to high rpm for long drive, then your Alfa will sound what an Alfa should sound!

On the other hand if you drive slowly with the Alfa, the engine will be jerking like mad and sounds bad....:trytofly:

This runs against my thinking. I whack my car quite heavily and repair bills is correspondingly higher. How does Alfa achieve this?
