mito
 

anone got or tried the alfa mito? been looking at one for the other half as she needs something cheaper to run than the integra

I've got one, a Veloce 155TB. I've had it for about 2 months now and it's a great little car. The handling is fun, loads of grip, a bit of roll and not bad steering. The engine's a little corker and quite grunty for a 1.4 but it's nota revver, it's all over by about 5.5k rpm.

I specced mine up with heated leather seats, cruise, climate and privacy glass which wasn't cheap, but it's a lovely car to be in.

It's not perfect and has some really annoying features (intermittent only has 2 speeds, both of them wrong, you have to set the DNA switch to D everytime you start it, there's a bit of the dash that reflects inthe windscreen, the fuel low warning light and the fuel low warning message on the trip computer work independently from each other), but I think that's what they call character ;)

I get 33mpg average driving it like a typical Italian (flat out) and nothings fallen off it yet.

cheers mate exactly what i was after- thats pretty good mpg for a 1.4 turbo!!
trip to go and try one this weekend i think-she had a 145 cloverleaf before and the intermittent was exactly the same lol
