Now for the bad news: in town I found the throttle oversensitive and the gearbox – such a sweet-shifting affair on a fast back-road or a freeway – irritatingly unpredictable and indecisive. Add that to maddeningly grabby, binary brakes and it’s a difficult car to drive smoothly in town.

I found quite the opposite to what he is describing here, perhaps he had the car in D-mode whilst being stuck in traffic. The car is super comfortable to drive in town, I had no issues with brakes or indecisive gearbox or oversensitive throttle. :confused: I took one for a test drive around Hyde Park with plenty of traffic and speed humps and stop streets etc.
 
Car Mag will be adding a Giulia 2L T to their long term fleet soon. This will be a useful indicator to see how the servicing aspect of the cars & brand hold up.
