What would you say if we told you we had a vehicle for each member of the family?

Alfa Romeo and Fiat: There’s one for everybody. 

Alfa Romeo and Fiat are two of our favourite Vehicle manufacturers for many reasons, but one reason is that they really make excellent family vehicles. We really do have an Alfa or Fiat for every family’s vehicle needs, whether that be a practical family SUV, stylish family hatchback or the perfect first car for your child. Alfa Romeo, founded in Italy by Cavalier Ugo Stella, has been impressing drivers since 1910 and over a century later they’re still doing just that. The Italian Alfa Romeo brand is closely linked with its parent company, Fiat. Fiat was founded in 1899 in Italy by a group of investors, including Giovanni Agnelli. Throughout the years, Fiat has thoroughly impressed by offering luxury and performance at a great price. Being excellent Italian manufacturers is not the only thing Alfa and Fiat have in common, they also produce vehicles to perfectly suit every aspect of family life.

As a family, we recognise that cars are an essential part of every-day family life. Whether that be taking the children to school or doing the weekly food shop, our cars play a massive part in our families lives. Parent’s will be asked “are we nearly there yet?” as many as 60 times per year – let that sink in. Family time is so important and believe it or not the average driver in the UK will spend in total 4 years of their lifetime behind the wheel- we believe that time should be spent feeling comfortable.

We have found three of our favourite Alfa Romeo and Fiat vehicles which fit into these three categories –

1.     The Practical Family SUV – The perfect SUV for those long journeys.

2.     The Stylish Family Hatchback – The excellent day-to-day vehicle.

3.     The Perfect First Car – The low-running cost, safe first vehicle.

We don’t believe there is such a thing as ‘one size fits all’ – every family is different and has different requirements for a vehicle. We truly do have an Alfa or Fiat to suit each member of the family… let us introduce you.

First up, we have the Alfa Romeo Stelvio – If you want a family car to turn heads then you can’t do much better than this. The excellent 5 door Family 4x4 SUV AUTO is perfect for those long trips on the motorway. With good design and excellent materials throughout the vehicle’s impressive interior, there would be no need for the constant questioning of if you’re nearly there yet because this vehicle has the perfect specification to keep all the family happy. The comfort of the driver is extremely important, therefore the Stelvio has both heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, making those long trips more comfortable.  With rear charging ports, the vehicle is sure to keep the children entertained and electronics charged during trips. Safety is the highest priority when it comes to looking for a family vehicle, with front and rear parking sensors, as well as rear parking camera – these safety measures can stop you from damaging your vehicle or worse somebody getting hurt. They save time, money, stress, and are worth it in a family vehicle. The boot space in this SUV is great and can accommodate for all the families’ belongings.

Second up, we have the stunning Alfa Romeo Giulietta – This great Family 5 door Hatchback is the perfect vehicle for everyday life. Whether that be taking the children to school or the weekly food shop, this is certainly well equipped to take on any task that is thrown the vehicles way. The stylish design and excellent handling, complimented with the complete practicality needed to be a great family vehicle, is what made us fall in love. With plenty of space within the vehicle and rear Isofix child seat preparation, it really has everything you need to ensure a comfortable and safe journey. The boot space of the Giulietta is great for a hatchback.

Now lastly, here comes the dreaded moment for all parents... when your child can drive. It can be a tough time for parents when your child starts learning to drive. Learning to drive is a rite of passage for teenagers so when the day comes, we’ll be right here with you. Finding a first car for your teenager may be quite a daunting and difficult process but we have various vehicles in stock that are just perfect for new first-time drivers. Our personal favourite would have to be the Fiat 500. This is one of the most desirable cars on the market for young buyers. This vehicle just oozes with a retro charm and is simply perfect for anybody looking for a stylish yet completely safe and practical first car. The great thing about these cars is the fact that they have an excellent low-running cost due to the smaller engines. If you are looking for more information regarding first cars, then we have a handy blog post already on our blog which can help guide you into the right direction.
