In today's video I am looking at another potential purchase for young driving enthusiasts - the Alfa Romeo MiTO. Available now at a tempting price, and with sumptuous Italian curves - is the MiTO an ideal first Alfa?

Doesn't matter how fast you're going there's always some bloke in a rented van doing at least 20 mph more.

The “Alfa wave” is universal. On my run to work in my Giulietta (actually the same engine as the one on the video) I often see a chap in a blue 159 estate going the other way. We always salute each other. In Japan. God, I love Alfas.

Reeve here! Huge thanks to Jay for, as ever, doing such a good job reviewing the Alfa. It was an absolute please to take the car down for review and I hope to have some more stuff on the channel in the near future 👍

You say "Don't buy it", all the comments I've read say how brilliant they are. Love it.

The MiTo Cloverleaf is my first car and it stood out from the crowd for me, ok, unreliable is what many will say which I understand as I’ve already had to replace all 4 spark plugs and the power steering column nearly failed on me, however it’s the character of an Alfa which I love, which is why I’m proud to drive mine as it always puts a smile on my face

[AntoniusTyas]

So he sold his old unreliable MiTo, considered buying E38 7er or Jag XJ, then went on to buy another MiTo?

Mad lad. Props to him.

I absolutely love the MiTo. My sister has one. It’s the 09 MiTo Veloce 155bhp. It’s bloody quick. It’s one of my dream cars and hopefully next year I’ll be buying it off her. Atm I have a Civic Type S but I’ve driven the MiTo and I can say it’s absolutely stunning.

I whas 18 when i bought my 2010 mito QV, never regretted it. No isseu's at all, just regular maintenance. Also added a lot of mods. A strut brace and lowering springs or coilovers make's this car stear even better. Like a go kart😁

[colinmclellan]

I couldn’t believe it when I saw this review - I’ve just bought a Mito QV yesterday as my daily (take delivery next week)!
“We all need a small, fun Alfa Romeo in our lives” that was absolutely my thinking! What a relief you thought it was fun and not rubbish! Phew 😀👍

[ajcgolf]

My first car was a 2010 Mito with the 1.4n/a engine and I absolutely loved it!

[marnixiii]

I was literally looking at a MiTo one week ago, you uploaded this video, and now I've bought one. Best timing.

[richardwehli]

I have twinair and totally agree with what you said on the lack of power. That being said, for a young driver, the noise is lovely and in my opinion still fun to drive. The £0 tax and cheap insurance are also great.

[thedocslab]

People knock Alfa's but I think the thing that makes us buy are that they look different and never fail to put a smile on your face. I've had a mito and now have a giulietta but also yearn for a GT and Brera

[wiljee]

just bought an Alfa romeo MiTo from 2010, just love it already so much!

[aldo]

Hi, i might be too late but please you dont have to take the headlights a part. I had the same problem in my mito and the only thing you have to do is to "go fishing" with a magnet at the end of cable down your headlight
Good luck!

[freddieparrydrums]

Yesss, it’s here! I have been thinking of one of these for ages!

[gowap]

I have an Alfa Romeo Mito QV 2010
Not a single problem so far, 150 thousand km
Love the car, they are pretty reliable with the right maintenance!!

[CathodeRayNipplez]

Young drivers? I'm 56 and would have one 😀

[ruudhobsumaz]

I've got one. My first Alfa and the previous owner was so kind to make it into a tracktool.
215 Bhp, bigger brakes, stiffer suspension, upgraded clutch and an exhaust making some bangs along the way. Indeed the steering could be a lot more direct. Reliability? I just got it for 4 months and feels solid, for now. :P

I had a 0.9 Mito Sportiva in this colour and wheel combination. Loved it and gave me no bother, my first proper car and a highlight of my early twenties!
