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.

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta has a long history, spanning from 1954 when it was introduced at the Turin Motor Show. The 750 and 101 series, offered as a family sedan, roadster and coupe, ceased production in 1965. The most recent introduction of the Giulietta came in 2010. It was launched as a five-door hatchback, with the standard 1.4 petrol engine doing 0-60 mph in just under eight seconds, and it came second at the European Car of the Year Awards in 2011.
