Description
**Alfa Romeo MiTo Veloce 155 - 2009 - Etna Black - 68,000 Miles**
Here for sale is my Alfa Romeo MiTo Veloce 155 in Etna Black. This has been a great car to own and drive, offering an excellent combination of performance, handling and everyday usability.
Powered by the 1.4L turbocharged engine producing 155bhp, it's surprisingly quick for its size while remaining relatively affordable to insure. Whether you're looking for a fun daily driver or a solid base for a project or track car, the MiTo Veloce is a fantastic choice.
Unfortunately, I no longer have the time, space or funds to continue working on the car, so I'm hoping it goes to an enthusiast who can give it the attention it deserves.

Known Issues:
I want to be completely honest about the car's condition:
* The gearbox likely requires refurbishment or replacement. The car still drives and selects gears without issue, but there is a noticeable whining noise from around 20mph that becomes louder with speed. The gear lever also moves slightly when in 4th gear.
* I have been advised that the air conditioning condenser and auxiliary belt will need replacing.
* Age-related scratches and marks to the bodywork, including a scrape on the driver's side (shown in photos).
* The glovebox retaining clip may be broken, allowing it to open fully.
Despite these issues, the car remains a very enjoyable drive with plenty of power and character. It would make an excellent project for an Alfa enthusiast or someone looking for a well-specced hot hatch with relatively low mileage.
