Not a diesel, but not very old and not too expensive. http://tinyurl.com/2wwsoc They're twats to buy from, though, so go prepared. ISTR the JTS engines are less trouble-prone than the older TSparks, too. But I could be wrong.

I have the same car as listed here, barring registration month and colour. You get the new interior, but the older exterior - the best pairing if you ask me. I can vouch for the engine - torquey, reasonably efficient and 165bhp in the JTS over 150bhp in the TS (I believe). > Not a diesel, but not very old and not too expensive. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > But I could be wrong. Steve, have you dealt with them before? The seller has 0 feedback! I just read the price and now I'm depressed! Owned mine since new (pre-registered) and I really thought it was worth a couple of thousand more than that! I've only just passed 50,000miles, but even so... damn! >> Not a diesel, but not very old and not too expensive. >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > (pre-registered) and I really thought it was worth a couple of thousand > more than that! I've only just passed 50,000miles, but even so... damn! Yours will be worth more with the lower mileage. You can also claw a little more back if you charge an admin and a cash handling fee. > > Not a diesel, but not very old and not too expensive. > > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Steve, have you dealt with them before? The seller has 0 feedback! They're a bit car supermarket - been around for years. The kind of place where you tell a shiny suited salesman which car you want to see and trawl to the far corner of their yard to find it. > I just read the price and now I'm depressed!

I've only just passed 50,000miles, but even so... damn! 156s are worth sod all at the moment. I reckon we've lost £1500 on ours in 2 years...... more or less half its value.

I like the optimism of 'at the moment' implying that it might change. If 156s have ever been low depreciators, it's not been since circa 2001 in the UK. Last time I looked at Ebay, it was a graveyard of unsold Alfas at offers way below what the seller was looking for. For the best comparison there, I looked at Audi vs Alfa - sobering! :-( SignatureZ Scotland Alfa Romeo 156 2.4JTD Veloce Leather 'Oil' be seeing you..
