Alfa Romeo's flagship from 1998, a large front-wheel-drive sedan that replaced the 164, with small, low-set headlamps that split opinion. A facelift in 2003 gave it a more conventional Alfa face. It was offered with Twin Spark fours, V6s and diesels, and it had no direct successor when it ended in 2007.
