The new Alfa
Romeo 159 sedan and Brera sportscar are the undoubted centre
of the many visitors' attentions at the 30th Bologna Motor
Show this week. However these two models are flanked on the
large, spacious stand by two new specification level
examples of the Alfa 147 hatchback and GT Coupé.
Proving itself a vivid example of the Alfa
Romeo world of style and technology, the Alfa 147 Black Line is
being exhibited. The new Alfa 147 ‘Black Line’ is fitted
with a
120bhp 1.9 JTDm engine, which weds sportiness and elegance
in an exclusive youthful and dynamic specification
distinguished by a two-tone livery that combines Navone Grey
with a sophisticated glossy Black, central pillar, rear
spoiler and caps for the mirror and for the roof. Inside,
visitors can admire a new sporty two-tone cloth (black and
red): exclusive to the Black Line version. The sporty
impression is also accentuated by the car’s low ride, a
chrome exhaust tail pipe and 17” alloys with diamond-shaped
holes and 215/45 tyres.
The new Alfa 147 Black Line also
offers as standard equipment VDC with ASR, ABS with EBD, 6
airbags, radio with CD player, leather steering wheel and
gear knob, manual climate control system and foglights. The
original specification, which will be available from 2006, may be ordered
for all engines in the range and with a three or five door body.
Space has also been found in
Bologna for a 150 bhp Alfa 147 1.9 JTDm in the Exclusive
specification that offers the most sophisticated devices in
the safety field as standard: including VDC, ASR, ABS with
EBD and six airbags.
