2014 Alfa Romeo Giulia rendered

The much anticipated Alfa Romeo Giulia was supposed to arrive in 2012, but Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne's dissatisfaction with proposals sent designers back to the drawing boards. This caused a bottleneck in the development process as other designs on the sibling models to the Guilia were also rejected. Now the Giulia is not expected to arrive until 2014.

Thankfully, Alessandro Masera, who is a passionate Alfa fan and amateur virtual designer, has sent us these speculative renderings of what he wishes the Giulia will look like. The designs, which include both sedan and sportwagon, are mouth watering and contain some Ferrari flair, as all Alfa models should.

Reasons to purchase a new Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 Progression

There are several reasons to purchase a new Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 Progression. The first is that small circular thing on the front. You know, the badge. That is what most motorists want when they choose the MiTo – the opportunity to say 'I own an Alfa Romeo'. Humans can be shallow, after all, so we may as well be honest. The second reason to park yourself inside this MINI rival is the in-your-face styling. Whereas the MiTo cannot be described as 'pretty' - it is 'pretty' distinctive. Furthermore, that monstrous grill and the wonky registration plate ensure this supermini stands-out from the crowd.
