SLOUGH, United Kingdom – December 4, 2008: To celebrate the launch of the Alfa 159 Limited Edition, the Italian sporting marque is giving motorists the chance to win ready-to-race James Bond Quantum of Solace Scalextric sets featuring the Aston Martin DBS and the Alfa 159.

Loaded with more than £3000 worth of gadgets, including lowered suspension, red Brembo brake callipers, sports dials with red background, black leather upholstery, Carbonio black metallic paint and darkened 19” spoke alloy wheels, the Alfa 159 Limited Edition is a new secret weapon for dealers across the country.

The eye-catching saloon which is limited to just 250 examples is powered by a 1.9 JTDM 150bhp diesel engine and costs £22,168 on the road. It will reach 62mph from rest in 9.2 seconds and 47mpg (official combined mpg figure).

For a chance to win a James Bond Quantum of Solace Scalextric set, motorists will need to test drive any new Alfa 159 and complete a form at their local Alfa Romeo dealership.
