147 1.6 TS Turismo (52 plate). Loved it but took it in for service after six months and was given salesman's current demo for the day (see next car), loved it so bought it! That bloody salesman knew what he was doing!

147 2.0 TS Lusso (03 plate). Loved that even more and, wow, was that car fast! Sold a house in late 2004 and made a healthy profit so treated myself to the next one.

GT 2.2 JTS (54 plate). In Lipari Grey with Tan leather. That car was my dream car but I had nothing but trouble with it from day one (a list of problems as long as your arm). Had enough of Alfa's apalling customer service after a year so swapped it for a Mini Cooper S. Vowed never to buy an Alfa again, then got invited to the launch of the Brera (uh-ohhh).

Brera 2.2 JTS SV (06 plate). Saw it in the showroom on launch day and thought 'I've just got to have that'. Five days later I picked her up and loved every minute of owning that car. Having said that I started getting itchy for a change late last year so got the next one!

Brera 2.4 JTDm SV (57 plate). Every bit as good as the first Brera, although it has a couple of niggles at the minute.
