Now that's a car that will empty your bank balance. They are lovely looking cars and the interiors are very high quality it's just a shame they have a terrible reputation for reliability. I hope it runs well for you as it does look very nice?Swapped the A2 as daily for a 13 plate Alfa Romeo Giulietta in Etna Black.
Keeping the A2 just need to find someone to fix the starting issues, engine runs perfect on 102k, and the car is in excellent condition just can't rely on it to get me anywhere without it leaving me stranded.
Many happy years with the A2 but it doesn't have a Dynamic mode.
I have posted a picture in an older thread to hopefully make it easy to find when searching https://www.a2oc.net/community/index.php?threads/bleeding-webasto.43749/post-443442@hydo14 any chance you can post a picture of the Webasto bleed screw for the benefit of others. ( preferably in the location it is in service rather than down inside the arch liner )
Not heard too many reliability horror stories with the Giulietta, full service and oil change every year, belts every four years and it should be fine. This one is the 1.6 diesel on 90k miles but it's a different animal to the chattery diesel in the A2. I don't do many miles these days. less than 5k a year so fingers crossed. I've seen them with 150k - 200k miles, a few have over 300k miles so they are a fairly robust unit on the face of it.Now that's a car that will empty your bank balance.

I admit I'm only going by the brand in general and can't say I know about the Giulietta from any experience, I honestly do hope you have a good one as it is a lovely looking car, not bad for a daily runner i'd say. It must be quite rapid compared to the A2.Not heard too many reliability horror stories with the Giulietta, full service and oil change every year, belts every four years and it should be fine.

So your brakes worked fine but were corroded, thats not a reason for rejection!Today I am over the moon!
Project 250 failed its MOT but only on brake disks being heavily corroded on the inside edge.
The brake test showed the whole braking system to be functioning perfectly so still really happy.
I’m sure a quick trip to ECP this afternoon will solve this issue and see it fly through the retest.
Purchasing a vehicle this cheap was always a gamble but it looks like all will be good.
Kind regards,

It fails to state "Made In Germany" all Germany means is that it passed thru Germany. Quality however will be how it stands the test of time!Just bought a cheap ratchet from Lidl, check out the manufacturing location!
