This is the new Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio at the Frankfurt Motorshow.  This is an updated blog following on from our first report on 4th of August 2015.

The new Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio is an technologically advance car with an active front spoiler, light weight body panels, rear wheel drive and a 0-62 mph time of only 3.9 seconds.

All sounds like very good ingredients to us.

We Blog Any Car thoughts……….

We are so glad that we saw it in the flesh.  It is a beautiful looking car.  Very neat looking and we are sure Alfa Romeo wouldn’t mind us saying that it look’s like a mini Maserati Ghibli.  The proportions work very well with a long bonnet and a short boot.

Inside is very “Alfa Romeo”, all the instruments and dials are soley for the driver and the build quality looks good too.

We can’t wait to see it in right hand drive form in the UK.  It will give the German manufacturers something to think about.  This car is living and breathing a sporting soul,  we could see and feel that from just looking at it on the Alfa Romeo Stand.  Not all the competition can say that.

This car is what Alfa Romeo is all about.  We are sure that if you were to drive it, it would make you feel very special on a B road… or just walking up to it before getting in.

“I hate washing and cleaning my car but I would enjoy cleaning this all day long if it was mine (or even if was my neighbours car!)”. 

Check out this short video from Alfa Romeo.  It will make you want one.

What a sound!!!
