This beautiful Alfa Romeo is now a used car for less than 3,000 euros


Looking for a stylish event? Then you should go to Alfa Romeo. The brand knows better than anyone how to draw a luxury car with elegant strokes of the pen. Look, for example, at the Alfa Romeo MiTo. Good looks that can nevertheless be bought as a used car for next to nothing.

With the name MiTo, which is a combination of Milano and Torino, the Italian roots of the small hatchback are evident. Red color completes the picture.

Italian used car reliability

Unfortunately, Italian cars are generally not known for their reliability. The Alfa Romeo MiTo is also completely disease-free, but according to Roadside Assistance, many problems can be managed. For example, the lower cable of the second car sometimes becomes loose, causing the used car to not start. It is also possible that the MiTo no longer wants to start after hitting the curb very slightly. As a safety feature after an accident, the fuel supply stops.

In addition, it occasionally happens that the ABS and ESP system malfunction, but this can be reset according to the Road Assistance. With two-cylinder engines you should pay attention to fuel consumption as much as possible, because the engine has very little fuel in it. If less fat is lost, the rate is too fast.

Alfa Romeo MiTo as a used car

Speaking of the engine, what options were made during its production from 2008 to 2020? A lot. As used cars you will find models with the aforementioned 0.9-liter two-cylinder (with or without turbo), 1.4-liter four-cylinder (also with or without turbo) and two diesel engines. Many different variations of all Fiat engines.

For a fraction of the price (if you’re only looking for the petrol versions), you’ll find the simpler 1.4-litre four-cylinder variant as a used car. Depending on the year of manufacture, this produced 70 or 78 hp. Nothing to write home about, but enough to keep up with the rest of the traffic.
