Newbie. From Alfa 166 To Is200 Sportcross

nickd · July 4, 2009

Hi all

Well, I picked up the my IS200 Sport Cross from Montys in Sheffield on Thursday afternoon and I am soooooo happy with it. The build quality I especially like and everything works!!! My initial impressions are great. Yesterday I drove the car from Wirksworth in Derbyshire, via Chatsworth to Sheffield, then the Snake Pass to Manchester Airport and back to Sheffield. I had upto four people in the car and did 127 miles on just a tiny bit off half a tank to quarter tank of petrol.

So happy with that but i expect it to be a bit pants round town. Yet again I am really suprised with the build quality, also I'm finding the 2 litre engine to be more than adequate, I'm not really a speed freak. I do however love the smoothness of the engine and the great noise it makes. Im off to Whitby in the car for a few days for my 40th so looking forward to that. Anyway, really glad I bought the Lexus and not a bit not sorry (well a bit) to say goodbye to my Alfa affair of six cars.

It really is ace!
