2006 ALFA ROMEO 159 2.2 JTS 6 SP MANUAL 4D SEDAN
$5,500 Negotiable
Seller's Description
"You can't be a true petrolhead until you've owned an Alfa Romeo" Jeremy Clarkson for all his faults knew a thing or two about cars. The reason he made this quote was simply that Alfas are drivers cars. The way they handle, the sound they make, and the way the car responds to your input leaves a smile on your face (take it up to the hills when you buy it and see what I mean). It is a slick 6 speed manual, the only way to drive a drivers car like an Alfa, and the most reliable transmission by a long shot. Regretfully after 14 years of ownership (I am the second owner) my Alfa 159 is being placed on Marketplace. Stock in most areas which means you get:
• Anti-Lock Braking
• Brake Assist and Hill Start
• Electronic Brake Force Distribution
• 7 Airbags (incl knee)
• Engine Immobiliser
• Seatbelts - Pre-Tensioners Front Seats
• Traction Control System
• Vehicle Stability Control
• Auto Climate Control with Dual Temp Zones
• Cruise Control
• Central Locking Remote Control
• Full Leather Interior
• Two Key Fobs
• Parking Distance Control Rear
• Power Mirrors
• Power Steering
• Power Windows
• Radio CD with 8 Speakers
• Trip Computer
The only things I have added are aftermarket 17" wheels (I still have the 4 original 17s if you are interested although they have gutter rash) and an aftermarket but custom fitted and integrated SATNAV system with Android Auto, DVD, CD, Radio etc, which uses the steering wheel controls. Also included is an OBD2 sensor linked to the SATNAV via the Torque app so you can see real-time info about the car.
Recently serviced (and has a full service history which is vital for a European car) and rego until 2025.
This is an 18 year old car, but the interior is almost faultless, with only a couple of blemishes, rare for a car of this age.
Issues, well it is an 18 year old European car but today Alfas are no less reliable than any other Euro. It does need the timing chain replaced asap (common to Euro cars around this many kms) and something you will have to do at some point no matter which 159 you buy. A couple of sensors are faulty and have been for years, but unless you want to pay $900 for a new sensor, I say leave it be. The Torque app will show how the engine is running in real time anyway. I also have some parts including the original cd player head unit (which you will need if you don't want the SatNav and want to use the factory CD changer in the boot), and a couple of trim pieces.
I will be sad to see it go but que sera sera. Time for a new owner to appreciate a modern classic and a car that still gets admiring looks even now, I mean look at it!
Genuine buyers only, no more scammers please.
