The ALFA ROMEO BRERA (2006-11) 3DR COUPE 2.4 JTDM 200 6SPD is a striking, three-door diesel coupe rather than a practical family hatchback or SUV. In the UK used-car market, it appeals to drivers seeking Italian style and a more individual alternative to mainstream sporty coupes, with useful long-distance ability. The 2.4-litre diesel suits commuters and couples who want motorway journeys, strong pulling power and room for occasional passengers, but its low roof and limited rear access make it less suitable as a family car. Distinctive looks and engaging road manners help the Brera stand out against rivals like the Audi TT. mycarcheck.com records 13 look-ups covering seven VINs, so figures are indicative, not a broad market survey.
