The ALFA ROMEO 159 (2006-09) 4DR SALOON 1.9 JTDM 16V DPF 150 TI QTRONIC AUTO6 is a stylish, mid-sized four-door diesel saloon, aimed at buyers wanting something more distinctive than a mainstream family car. Its sharp Italian design and TI trim give it a sportier presence, while the automatic gearbox makes everyday driving easier. It suits commuters and small families who value comfort, motorway ability and a more engaging look, though its size and diesel set-up are less ideal for frequent short city trips. Compared with German saloons such as the BMW 3 Series and Audi A4, the 159 is known for expressive styling and an involving feel, rather than being the obvious conservative choice. mycarcheck.com has recorded 9 checks across 6 VINs, so this is a small sample. The checks show an average private-sale value of £1,400, mileage of 115,000, annual mileage of 2,000 and nearly five previous keepers, on average. These figures describe the cars checked, not every example.
