Nice clip, I have been waiting for this one! Thank you for posting it!

Glad you liked it! I also have the road test for the Maserati Biturbo that was on this same episode, I will upload it soon! Gian Mauro

The car was sold as Alfa-Romeo 75 here. Saw a lot of them here in Germany.

[airaudo]

Yes! My cousin had a twin Spark 4 cylinder, while I had a 2.5 V6 here! What is a Ford Laser, btw?

[giuliettomane]

for me, the last Alfa Romeo!

[ionoMaybe]

Couldn't agree more, we Americans are a fat bunch of people

[kernals12]

unlike European reviewers who are quite biased towards the Alfa's passion and soul, I'm talking about you, Jeremy Clarkson, American reviewers look at the Alfa the same way that they look at a BMW,

@AxelStraf mio padre aveva la 2.0 turbodiesel, in pratica la versione peggiore, eppure filava uguale! mi piacerebbe comprare una 3.0, ma considerato quanto è aumentato il prezzo della benzina (e penso che questa usi benzina rossa) quanto beve sta macchina,e il fatto che non è nemmeno euro 1.... chissà, magari in america non hanno tutti sti problemi e possono usarla tranquillamente.

@Carlito1988 Was maintenance religiously kept on your machine? (service done at alfa romeo dealership when they existed, and italian car specialists after they left US shores, or just a dedicated mech or diy?) I hope the upcoming 2014 Alfa Guilia planned to spearhead Alfa back to the US has that magical Alfa look and spirit translated into the 21st century. I do like the 159.

@Carlito1988 (i know this comment was posted 3 years ago, so hope you can reference this reply) wow, from brand new to now (or at least up to your comment was made!) still have your milano? I am an alfa fan through and through. As a kid I dreamt of owning a GTV6, something about the aggressive (very italian) shape of that car. How was the reliability of your Milano throughout the years? Was it as nightmarish as people (like Top Gear UK) always convey today? How was/is the maintenance?

[HoudiniEsteban]

Wow. So much body-roll. Some guys on Alfabb talked about it, but I didn't know it was that bad until now. Still one of my all-time favorite cars.

Holy shit! I was literally in tears at 4:11 John says; "An odd item or two might have to be left behind." The guy just throws the bag in the weeds and slams the trunk like "fuck this!" and walks away. Then the camera just switches angles. That chain of events was priceless!

[whoohaaXL]

N/m I found that THIS was the 75 here in the U.S.

@airaudo

I had a 1.8 imola, a twinspark and I now own a 3.0 V6 Amerika

@coreydl2008 The horsecollar brake lever looks like the one on a 1969 to 1971 Ford LTD coupe and the Chevrolet cars from the late 1960's early 1970's.

In Italian Oro is Gold, Platinum in Italian it is Platino
