Alfa Romeo GT Coupe deal!

Why lease a Alfa Romeo GT Coupe ?

It's difficult to find complaint up front; as far as compact two-door coupes go the GT's cabin is cosy. The driving position is better than Alfas from the past, although more headroom would be appreciated. With rear seat accommodation realistically a token arrangement, asking adults to sit in the rear for any length of time would be foolish. Being a sporty coupe the GT's ride is firm, and this is reflected inside the car. Uneven road surfaces plus road and engine noise are all more obvious than in a regular hatchback.

It's a cliche but even when standing still the GT looks like fast and exciting. The driving experience remains essentially loyal to this premise. Contrary to tradition, the driving position is acceptable and the view forward is good. The three engine options infuse the car with equally different personalities. The 2.0 JTS variant is rev-happy and needs to be driven hard; the JTD model prefers a smoother approach but the results are no less enjoyable, while the V6 can be a monster - it will growl and bark its way around corners and along straights. Overall the ride is predictably firm, but not uncomfortable. The big surprise is the steering, which is fast and accurate if lacking in a little feedback.

When a car has been designed to stand out from the crowd, you do need protection. Thankfully, Alfa provides remote central locking with a electronic code plus an alarm an immobiliser. However a visually deterrent, such as a steering lock, would be a good low cost investment.
