Jokingly referred to as “Alfa’s German car” in reference to its build quality and reliability, the Brera marked a significant chapter in the Milanese firm’s modern history. Penned by Giugiaro, it was immensely beautiful and reviewers soon found it was well-made too. A sumptuously appointed interior greets you as you open the door and a range of capable engines were offered. For those seeking the perfect compromise between a grand tourer and a sports car, the Brera occupied the sweet spot in between.
This 2006 JTS example is in very good condition for its age and shows just 89,046 miles. It’s offered with an advisory-free MOT until 31st March 2025 and reportedly drives very well indeed following a service in early January 2024
