Has anybody else had massive trouble with Alfa Romeo and know any way around putting pressure on the dealership to purchase back the car without having to go to court. I bought a Brand New Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon from SGT in Maidenhead and it has had huge amounts of faults many still outstanding. It has been to the dealers some 16 times for everything from the Radio Connect system x 3, lights, indicators, heater, central locking, wipers, airbag, climate control, key fobs, door locks, hazard lights, rear syspension x 2, timing belt, variator x 2 and camshaft but to mention a few. They are offering me a part exchange value of £6300. I paid £14600 just over 2 years ago. It has done 24000 miles. I am completely fed up with it and need a quick resolution. DO NOT BUY ONE OF THESE CARS
