Alfa Romeo has upgraded its limited edition Alfa 147 Collezione for 2008.

The car is now available with an exclusive Ghiaccio White paint job, and an optional black gloss roof (which is also now available on the Alfa Red versions of the 147).

It also boasts lowered and uprated suspension, a leather interior and new 17-inch alloys.

Air conditioning is included, as are steering wheel controls for the CD player.

Safety-wise, the car boasts six airbags and ASR traction control.

Power comes from either a 1.6-litre petrol engine or a 1.9-litre diesel unit, both of which produce 120bhp.
