The ALFA ROMEO 147 (2001-09) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.9 JTDM 150 16V DPF TURISMO 6SPD is a compact, five-door family hatchback, offering a more distinctive alternative to mainstream European models such as the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf. Its Italian styling and sporty character give it stronger personality than many practical rivals. Mycarcheck.com has recorded six look-ups across four different VINs, so this is a small sample rather than a complete picture of ownership. In those checks, the average private-sale estimate was £1,500, recorded mileage averaged 93,000 miles, and cars had four previous keepers on average. Average annual mileage was 2,000 miles. With its diesel engine and six-speed gearbox, the 147 suits commuting and longer journeys, while five doors make it useful for couples or families. It is best for buyers wanting character and engaging road manners, not the newest cabin or lowest-risk ownership; check service history and condition before buying.
