What engine type?
Have you scanned?
If the engine is really the fault, importation may be your only option as I have never seen an Alfa Romeo live.

There are Alfa Romeo's and I've seen a couple of them though they're very rare........
Importation is the only option as you stated

Not my cup of tea, but I just have to salute you for having class and distinction in what you drive. In a sea of humdrum Hondas/Acuras/Kias and other nondescript vehicles yours will stand out.

You, Sir, are a Man amongst Men in Nigerian drivers.

Lets be honest here, is it really worth it owning an Alfa Romeo 147 in Nigeria? It is just a small family car, nothing special. Apart from the fact that u will probably have to convert it from RHD to LHD, u will also need to import all ur parts. For what? For an ordinary car that is not marginally better than a civic type R or VW golf. Its not worth it, there are better options, unless of course the owner has a sentimental attachement to the car.

Most of its spare part are available in lagos except for the engine, you can not compare alfa 147 to honda in terms of strengnth and speed, in fact even durability. Have you ride one of the alfa romeo's?

Of course it is faulty! The timing belt got cut out, and didnt realize that on time and kept kicking the egine and itaffected the valves! So the best thing is to replace another one, im just thinking is it to get to cotonou or there are dealers around lagos.

Bro I'm not comparing Honda with Alfa Romeo, just saying the 147 is in the same class as Honda Civic type R (That's the civic sold only in europe). Forget the name, its just that Nigerians get carried away by things that are not common. Not saying Alfa Romeos are not good, but the 147 is just a small car.

Yeah, most people do engine conversion, it cost thrice the price of the engine. Its better to replace its real one. Was it at lagos you saw the cars?
