How long do you intend keeping your alfa?

Normally get bored of cars very quickly, but had this a year now and I wouldn't consider changing.

I have owned the 147 for nearly five years and the Sprint only six months so far.

my 166 is 7 years old and i have had it 5.5 years and hope it will go on for another 3 to 4 years, just about to rebuild the suspension and then a small sportronic gear box issue i have always loved the car and will save up for a Brera or GT, yep mid life crisis

had my 156 for just over three weeks. Will keep it until i cant afford it/it dies. still need to go in the garge since i bought it, for split pipe lol. insulation tape and Sizewell tape is working so far

I spotted that too, but only after I had posted

I have had the car for 9 months and it's on a 3 1/2 year PCP. so a bit to go yet

Have had mine since August, and given my record for keeping cars, I'll probably have it for about 3-5 years, by that time i'll probably be a bit bored and want something else

Had the spider 4 months now and loving every minute of it.

Will keep for around 4 years and then look at P/x for the next generation of spder or similar type Alfa

I was considering replacing the 147 with a 149 but as they so not seem to want to make it, unless the Mito, is a real gem, I will have to be looking elsewhere for a car sooner or later ...
I need a reliable car that can go at any time 600+ kms from an Alfa dealer .....
eventually, any car becomes "unreliable' just due to the number of Kms it has done.....
and no, the 159 and Brera do not rock my boat..... but then I was not a fan of the 156 either

Dang! I voted wrong because of it

Anyway, I only buy cars I don't sell them, or at least I don't plan to sell any. So my vote may be correct in ca. 9.5 years. Never understood why people keep changing cars so often...

Just over two years. I want to keep him for a very long time.

I've had the GTV about 2.5 to 3 years, the 33 for 12 years and the MG for 22 years
