Alfa Romeo is a quintessentially Italian carmaker known for the style and elegance of its sporty vehicles. In a 2008 episode of Top Gear, Hammond, Clarkson and May set out to prove that you can't be a proper petrolhead until you've owned an Alfa. The brand's iconic status also stretches beyond the small screen, with its cars appearing in a slew of blockbusters, including The Godfather, The Graduate, Octopussy and The Talented Mr Ripley. At the 2022 Autocar Awards, the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio was named a future classic, earning praise for being "sublime to drive and beautiful to look at" - a statement that perfectly captures the spirit of the brand.
Alfa Romeo's 147 hatchback, in production between 2000 and 2010, was designed to rival the perennially popular VW Golf and Ford Focus. It has four configurations - Ducati Corse, Base, Lusso and Turismo - and, according to Alfa, the GTA version can do 0-62 mph in 6.3 seconds. In 2005, the 147 won the European Touring Car Cup with driver Lorenzo Falessi, and it also achieved two consecutive wins at the Italian Superturismo Championship in 2003 and 2004.
The clutch and gearbox work together in a manual transmission to facilitate gear changes, determining the amount of power available from the engine. Unfortunately, several things can go wrong within this system, requiring an urgent repair.Most clutches last at least 60,000 miles, though several factors, including your driving style, can impact this distance. Gearboxes typically last between 100,000 and 150,000 miles - find out how much a repair is likely to cost here.Common signs of clutch and gearbox failure include a limp, hard-to-press or sticking clutch pedal; grinding or clunking noises when you change gears; difficulty moving the gear stick; and clutch slipping, which is when your car struggles to stay in gear. Since these symptoms will only worsen with time, booking a repair sooner rather than later is best.Before you take your car to the garage, have a look at our ultimate guide to clutch repair so you know what to expect.
