I should imagine it would be a tad thirstier than a scoob having 60% more engine capacity and 2 extra cylinders!!!
Lovely car though.

Have to admit that they do look pretty horny... depreciation and reliability would be a concern, but I'd still have one !!
Had some fun with a 156GTA on the A1 yesterday - it was rapid and looked superb
Apparently they do drink big time - but that's hardly the point is it ??

The biggest draw back is the dealer network, far worse than even Ford or Vauxhall.
I've had my 156 18months (from new) and had problems with suspension bushes and steering, the dealers seem totaly unable to sort the smallest of problems without constant hassle and repeat visits. I'm on my third dealer now but they are all the same.

lee: Miles from you, but I found Alan Gibson in Basingstoke to be OK - but then I never had any real problems with the car. There's a good independant place in Aldershot too.
