I am so happy VW Golf,Polo BMW 3 series and Audi A3 are so popular, there are literally thousands of them around, so when i drive in between them with my ruby red Alfa MiTo it feels so much more pecial, without this industrial look that german cars have, alfa is passion for sport. Forza Alfa!
Alfa had long time ago a batch of 164 with problems on the engine, and 9 years ago on the electric circuit of some 147 first edition, since then alfa has inherited this name of having poor reliability which is total bullshit because it can happen to anyone to make mistakes, that also happened to german car manifacturers, check who had to recall 800.000 cars for their defective airbags, or who polluted half planet by hacking the software that reports co2 emissions during test drives.
I´m 29 years old and proud owner of an Alfa Mito, I don´t agree with some things she said, if you´re buying this car for a 17 year old boy (in Argentina this car is very expensive..but I know that in Europe and Usa obviusly it gets cheaper), he will be thrilled. The car is simply great, the DNA system is outstanding, the driving feel is very very sporty...it is not a good car if you have a family, but I drove it for hours and hours in long distances and the confort is outstanding, the leather sits are outstanding, the audio systema also great, in a few words, MITO RULES.
I have never had a problem, It was my first Alfa, nowadays I drive a Giulietta (had a baby 10 months ago :) ), and I feel the same way as I did on the Mito. I had a modification done on the ECU and the car went from 170hp to 210hp...with a 1.4T motor...feels great, drives great. I had Chryslers, Bmws, drove Audis, since I bought the Mito, I never left the brand, when I take the Giulietta for a drive, it feels a disctinctive product. Can´t compare Alfas with a Ford Fiesta...shame you can´t get it in the USA.
I only watched this review because I miss my MiTo so much.... It's not the fastest, and refined, but it has so much soule! No other car makes you happier than an Alfa...
I have an alfa romeo mito 1.3 jtdm QV for a year and half and this car made me fall in love for Alfa Romeo, even tho it's the cheapest alfa right now, I never get bored driving it and it does boost my confidence ahah, I think I wanna keep it forever and when the time comes to buy another car, I'll just buy another alfa
It has been out for years and for me it is still the most inspiring design out there in the segment. I am not lucky enough to drive one but I see them pretty much on a daily basis. I live near Torino ;)
Well nearmost 3 years (was registered on the 9th October 2009, the first mito in denmark), and im happy that your mito have been as reliable as mine :)
I bought a mito about a week ago and I'm completely in love with it. Gorgeous little thing and I have already noticed the slightly noisy cockpit, stiff suspension and frankly rubbish entertainment system, yet I still get to drive an Alfa to work. If recommend the black and chrome lusso which is just so much car for your money.
Nazza Khan what’s the difference? The Mito has two doors. Does the giullietta have four doors? If so then I like the two door (because two-door hatchbacks are my favorite)
Such a pretty little car. Love it. In the horrid sea of Suzuki’s and Hyundai’s and so on which us Indians are condemned to, these cute little Euro Hot Hatches are just so cool. Aesthetics! So Important!
Just came today with my mito :D I'm literally over the moon, it's a alfa red, similar to this one in the video, quattrofoglio edition (only looks not engline) 1.4 mpi (110ps) with some raond aez rims that i want to change for the basic alfa rims that looks twice as better as the ones i got now. The only thing that i didn't like but i could live with it is that i don't have a computer or navigation system, or how i call it, i don't have a touchscreen. But I can see they left a lot of space for that if you want to upgrade. All in all, i will be having a lot of fun especially since summer is on the way :D
@@markoradic2002 no issues, the only thing i had to change is tires and upgrade the steering wheel software cause the servo steering is not mechanical it's a software issue (when the wheel gets heavier in random turns) so the update fixed it.

iPod connectivity in Fiat means an USB port where you can easily plug in an USB with MP3/WMA files on it, and just play that. The whole Fiat group has this, and if it comes with the Blue&Me system its actually really clever.
+jmart2688 The reason small cars like this are popular in Europe is because governments tax the life out of cars. In America people could be driving around in 5 litre cars for the same money.
hmmm... I did forget that this Alfa Romeo MiTo still has that Italian passion that makes the car drive well. We don't have Alfa Romeo here in PH though that's why I don't know much about 'em.
Great little review. Buying a used small car for everyday use, as my Qashqai is unnecessary for regular city/town driving. And I can't decide between this, a Grande Punto or a DS3..... lol
I am an alfista. My first car was an Alfa Romeo 155 1.8 TS 8V. I tested a used 2010 Mito 1.4 95 hp. the other day. It rode hard and choppy and was cramped in the back like a Honda CRX from 1988, the steering was uninformative and was as slow as a Renault 19 with 73hp that I also used to own. It is basically a Punto for double the price . I would rather have the punto and go on a vacation. I also tried a Giulietta 1.4 Turbo with 120hp. Definately a much better car. Still not sporty by 2022 standarts but has nice ride, nice handling and good engine sound and better build quality than the Mito. So if you want to buy a Mito buy a Guilietta or a Punto instead.
Beautiful. Alfa Romeo. If anything else matters I don't want to know about it. I'd take this home over pretty much anything else on the market. Except maybe the Giulietta.
I had a '09 Mito 1.4 16V Veloce in gunmetal - ex demo. Geogeous. But I had it after a Renaultsport Twingo Cup (too hardcore!). My Mito was sweet when revved, and a talented chassis was in there. But...the engine drank fuel/gutless, ride crashy, the steering hopeless and the DNA switch a jokey gimmick - and the damn steering used to correct - a safety feature I believe, but felt horrible. Oh, and the gearbox had to be replaced after a few weeks. Swopped for a luvly 500C, now have brill BMW 118d
Hey Guys I'm considering buying this car. I have a Golf V and I'm really sick of it because it has only 75hp and I need something more sporty but I don't have that much money for the fact I'm a student. Are the maintance costs high?
What more you want?? It's expensive?? Well...you can't just sell a prestigious giant in the price of some dam Hyundais! It's a Hatchback from House/Clan ""Alfa Romeo""...us Hatchback lovers have unconditional love to even cross limits to make hatchbacks hyper ..Swap is the magic word no matter engine or Transmission.. 💙💙Alfa Romeo 💙💙
"which unless you are in the cloverleaf you can´t really forgive it.." What is the cloverleaf, a level of equipment and specifications for the car? I can see the cloverleaf badge on the side, but wonder if that what she´s talking about.
does anybody that actually owns one of these think its a good first car for a 17 year old... looking at cars and tbh Im a guy and it takes something really special from a car to impress me so all of these 2/3 door cars look pretty similar... But the alfa stands out as an amazing looking car... I think I would be willing to deal with the issues she talks about in the video but Im unsure... any help, especially from somebody who owns one would be awesome
From a driving point of view, it makes sense. It's small, economical, safe and slow. From a car guy's point of view, it's an Alfa (sort of) and looks great, but the engines are pretty boring (except for the Cloverleaf which you probably can't afford) and I don't get the impression it's very good to drive. The insurance is also a bit higher than other cars the same size. If I remember correctly it was only £100 cheaper than the Giuletta which is better in every way. Basically it seems to be looks and exclusivity and not much else you get from this car. Maybe check out the Honda CR-Z? I know, it's not an Alfa, but it is faster than the 95 bhp version of the Mito, still looks great, gets 56 mpg, is more reliable but it is a bit more expensive, idk your budget though. If you have a bit more money than that you could get one of the nicest cars on the road: The Brera.
I am 24 years old and i own this same Mito from 2010. My experience? LOVE IT! although i wouldn't recommend you to buy one as a 17 years old. The reason? Just one. racing. I have upgraded this current mito to 300+ BHP and trust me it's a BEAST. So you should be a lil bit careful if you are interested buying this to a 17 years old kid who will sit in that car for the 1st time. Enthusiastic from the 155bhp it already has if he by any chance goes with a lil bit extra, with only some few changes goes to 200bhp. So you should be a lil bit care with that. Rather than that it's a really nice nice car! I used to own a JCW Mini cooper S and i had so much troubles with it. Then i changed to the alfa romeo mito and guess what. NOT EVEN one problem despite what people say about this cars. the DNA gives this car a totally different feeling in the driving. I can write so much about the mito but i think i said enough. :)
nicolasV1 You would not recommend someone 17 years old to buy the Mito because you upgraded yours to 300bhp? Makes no sense whatsoever. Secondly, as I said you can get a 95bhp version.
My first car was the model down from this car. Same wheels but in black. I got it last year as a 17th birthday present. The twin air engine (what i have) makes a good noise. But don't expect anything more than 30 MPG. The economy is terrible. As for 300 quid for iPod connectivity. That isn't true, USB comes as standard on all models. As for issues. Mine has not been problem free. But its nothing major that has stopped me from getting from A to B. Just little things like the stop start and the glove box strut mechanism. Apart from that. Its a real head turner in Black and Red and everyone who gets in it absolutely loves the sound, handling and the general feel in which it goes down the road. I would recommend with the proviso that the dealer will have to sort a couple things in the first year of ownership
Hi, I am 18 years old and I bought a Alfa Romeo Mito with 120PS this year and it's really amazing! I think I have one of the most beautiful cars which I could have at my age!
Some people just prefer one make of car over another. I have an acquaintance who will not buy anything but high end luxury cars and completely ignores everything else (M-Series BMW, AMG versions of Mercs etc). namibgtv6 is obviously a strong Alfa fan and would prefer it over every other car. I have a friend that refuses to buy any French car based solely on his car history. Is this based in ego? No. It's about preference. Nothing more.
Nice to know, thank you. Funny how they took advantage of their old sign to identify the sporty version. So the Quadrifoglio could be somewhat the Alfa´s equivalent of Audi´s R...lol
Bravo!!! At last MiTo's review... Maybe the best color is white. Thanks for this, actually i think this car is better than mini or A1... Maybe 308 GTi or VW GTi would be a good rivals.
well thats the amount of force ive shut car doors usually, i guess it does kind of rattle but i don't think it's that much of a big deal. lol there was one car my mum had an audi a3 (1996) and if you slammed the boot closed really hard it would spring back open, lol kind of weird but i just remembered it.
Perhaps. though I for one still care about driving dynamics, which is why BMW are kinda special to me, and the new Lexus GS too, and that's why I am also a fan of JDM. BTW, why is there something in my mind telling me that iPod connectivity and USB connectivity are completely different features. :-?
Giulietta is nice .. on the outside (I dislike the interior intensely, lol). The engine (the QV model) is lovely but it doesn't have the same "fun-factor" as the MiTo. :)
Yeah well I'll have to remind you that standard features are a completely different story in Europe. For example 10 years ago even electric windows and central locking were an option on most cars.
I am so happy VW Golf,Polo BMW 3 series and Audi A3 are so popular, there are literally thousands of them around, so when i drive in between them with my ruby red Alfa MiTo it feels so much more pecial, without this industrial look that german cars have, alfa is passion for sport. Forza Alfa!

don't listen to all the haters! She seems like she would look great with a miniskirt.
You should have tested the dual clutch model.
absolutely rockin'
Thanx. Quality review
Been waiting for this one!
well thats the amount of force ive shut car doors usually, i guess it does kind of rattle but i don't think it's that much of a big deal. lol there was one car my mum had an audi a3 (1996) and if you slammed the boot closed really hard it would spring back open, lol kind of weird but i just remembered it.
Perhaps. though I for one still care about driving dynamics, which is why BMW are kinda special to me, and the new Lexus GS too, and that's why I am also a fan of JDM. BTW, why is there something in my mind telling me that iPod connectivity and USB connectivity are completely different features. :-?
Giulietta is nice .. on the outside (I dislike the interior intensely, lol). The engine (the QV model) is lovely but it doesn't have the same "fun-factor" as the MiTo. :)
please take a review of the ford focus 1.0 ecoboost
Yeah well I'll have to remind you that standard features are a completely different story in Europe. For example 10 years ago even electric windows and central locking were an option on most cars.
I’m getting a Mito as my first car 😍
i’m about to get my first car, and i’m thinking about getting a mito as well
Yup even in last years 3 series alloy wheels were an option, can you imagine a beemer with plastic wheel covers lol?
Alfa Romeo is getting it hard now, fucking awesome!
It does look amazing
Maybe because Alfa focuses more on a good driving experience rather than ipods?
Wondering, what to choose... MiTo, or her.... As a matter of fact, i prefer the car.
im 15 at the mo and want to have this as my car for my provisional and first few years, would anyone reccomend?
the phrase @3:54 triggers "Hey Siri" in my iPhone....weird :P
Stunning
why isn't this review in your Alfa Romeo playlist?
