The Brilliant Alfa Romeo 145 Cloverleaf is Largely Ignored - Why?

The Alfa Romeo 145 Cloverleaf was a return to form for Alfa after the disappointment of the first series 145. The successor to the 33 was initially a flawed car but the Cloverleaf with the new Alfa 2 litre engine was brilliant.. if perhaps a little less polished than its rivals. 155hp and a super quick steering rack offered a genuine alternative to the best hatches of the time.
