Car Forum / Alfa Romeo Cars / March 2005'98 Alfa 156 2.0 TS
Just put a deposit on a 1998 156 2.0 TS - slightly concerned as price seemed low (4000) for the mileage (under 50,000) Looks to be in excellent condition (left front wheel makes grinding noise - seems to be worn pads) but dealer assures this will be fixed before delivery Any thoughts - or are Alfa's just very cheap cars secondhand?? > Just put a deposit on a 1998 156 2.0 TS - slightly concerned as price > seemed low (4000) for the mileage (under 50,000) [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Any thoughts - or are Alfa's just very cheap cars secondhand?? Depreciation is your friend! Unless you buy new. My high miler 98 2.0 TS cost me ?3200 18 months ago. Frankly, I don't why anyone drives anything else but Alfas when they can be picked up in fine fettle for so little.  SignatureI Amuse (I am Hughes.) Judge Nutmeg in #Digi 1998 156 2.0 TS Sport Looks like a fair price to me. Indeed, not expensive second hand, but not expensive new as well. Compared to i.e. BMW/Audi the depreciation in % is higher, but in pounds/euro is less!!
