Mention Alfa Romeo in conversation and you're sure to get a mixed response. The Italian brand has plenty of admirers willing to wax lyrical about its sensuous styling and fabulous handling, but there are probably as many who would happily condemn it for poor build quality and dodgy reliability. There's no question

New court documents also claim Mr Kewell and his wife Sheree Murphy were holidaying with Simone and Clyde Campbell in the Maldives as recently as April this year.Car giant Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) alleges former CEO Clyde Campbell misused more than $30 million in corporate funds on deals it claims were "uncommercial", including providing loan cars to models, sport stars and TV personalities such as Jesinta Campbell, Shane Warne and Matt Preston.According to an amended Statement of Claim filed to the Federal Court in Victoria yesterday, FCA alleges Mr Kewell made four payments ranging from $580 to $8467 — which added up to $13,975 — between July and December 2013, months after Mr Campbell stepped down from his role as CEO in April 2013.The revised statement of claim says FCA is "not aware of any business reason why Kewell would deposit funds into Campbell's personal bank account".Sources close to Mr Kewell say the costs were reimbursement expenses incurred by Simone Campbell, a property lawyer, on Mr Kewell's behalf.The Kewell contract was "irrevocably" extended from January 2016 to December 2018The amended court document also notes that "photographs and comments on Instagram and Twitter by Mrs Campbell, Kewell and others show that Mrs Campbell and Kewell attended Amilla Fushi Resort in the Maldives" in April 2015.According to the original statement of claim, Kewell's sponsorship deal with FCA also included $2000 per month towards a rental property, assistance with school fees to a maximum value of $75,000 per year, and eight return business class airfares between Australia and Europe annually.According to the statement of claim, the Kewell contract was "irrevocably" extended from January 2016 to December 2018 on a company letter signed by Mr Campbell's successor, Veronica Johns, "on or about April 2014".Mr Campbell left FCA Australia in April 2013 to become an independent distributor of FCA vehicles in New Zealand, but has since sold his share of the business.The revised court document increased the amount of money FCA "suspects" was used to buy a boat, from $412,000 to $550,000, based on invoices paid to a third-party company called Maxus, which is now run by Mark McCraith.Mr McCraith was FCA Australia's marketing director from May 2013 and May 2015 and helped oversee the "brand ambassador" program and other marketing and sponsorship deals.Mr McCraith is now chief operating officer of media agency Maxus, which lists FCA Australia as one of its clients.The revised court documents also go into more detail about how much money was paid to a dealership part owned by former Mercedes-Benz executive Ernst Lieb, who was sacked from the Germany car maker in 2011 for misusing corporate funds.Mr Lieb and Mr Campbell worked together previously at Mercedes-Benz Australia.The lawyer for Mr Campbell, Sam Bond, and a representative for Harry Kewell, have been approached for comment on the amended statement of claim.A spokesman for FCA Australia, Andrew Chesterton, declined to comment on the new claims or answer questions as to why FCA still uses the Maxus media agency at the centre of the alleged boat deal.

Skunks and RWD in Alfa's Italian future

It will be made in Italy, have a rear-wheel drive chassis, and be designed by skunks.Alfa is going back to its roots as driver's cars with the first two essentials, while the third is a tongue-in-cheek reference by chief designer Lorenzo Ramaciotti to the type of people in his department.Alfa created a special engineering and development 'skunk works' during the development program for its make-or-break Giulia sedan, which was created from scratch in only two years.We designers are all skunksThe outfit - which took its name from the top-secret Lockheed-Martin group that worked on a variety of aerospace programs from the 1940s in the USA - was staffed by experts who could think outside the circle on car development.But Ramaciotti says there was no need to conscript special skunks for design work on the Giulia."We designers are all skunks," he tells CarsGuide in Milan as he shows us over the Giulia."We are all car enthusiasts with a lot of passion. So, for us, being skunks is the key word for our work."He points out everything from the super-tight packaging of the Giulia's headlights to the number plate on the boot instead of the rear bumper, the first Alfa in more than 20 years with the plate in this position to cut 60 millimetres from the car's overall length."Designing a car is a very complex activity. You cannot believe how many constraints and trade-offs you have to come through. There are so many demands from different areas."He believes the Giulia is different enough to make an impact against heavy hitting rivals such as the BMW 3 Series and C-Class Mercedes-Benz, even though details of the cabin work are still secret."Alfa has the history and the charisma to avoid this. We don't have to change our DNA just to follow the trend of some newcomers to the market."But he confirms essential work on two new SUVs from Alfa Romeo as part of the eight-car model lineup for 2018 and the brand's full-scale return to the USA.We will have space for our fantasy"We don't call them SUV because we have Jeep in the range. We think of them more of crossover vehicles because we are more on the sports side," Ramaciotti says."You can make a good compromise between the stance and practicality of the crossover vehicle and the dynamic shape of a sports vehicle. I think the Porsche Macan is a very nice looking sports SUV."

2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia detailed | video

The new Giulia sedan is arguably the most important car in the history of Alfa Romeo.While the slinky 4C sports car was responsible for returning the Italian brand to its sports car roots after it sunk itself into also-ran oblivion, this new Giulia sedan looks to bring the sporty new Alfa Romeo into the mainstream. The Giulia is a small premium sedan which is set to rival the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C-Class, Audi A4 and Lexus IS, along with the upcoming Jaguar XE.Alfa has attempted to compete with those cars before but with only a small development budget and Fiat-based front-drive underpinnings to play with.RELATED: 2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia revealedThe new Giulia is a much more ambitious beast, packing lightweight platform with rear and all-wheel drive and a Ferrari-developed engine.It’s the first step in an aggressive $8 billion strategy that Alfa hopes will see production rise from less than 68,000 units in 2014 to over 400,000 by 2018 with eight all-new models.It’s a strategy that’s delivered an aggressive-looking car too, with the Giulia featuring piercing headlights, a big angry snout and a tough stance.The basic shape isn’t overtly angry, preferring softer round shapes over taut and sharp ones but once you add the big wheels, aero addenda and quad exhaust tips of the Quadrifoglio (QV) performance version it starts to look suitably menacing.The interior is also very driver-focused and bathed in leather, Alcantara and carbon fibre.It’s dominated by a large central display which is operated by a new BMW iDrive-style controller, while the familiar ‘DNA’ switch toggles between the various drive modes. For now Alfa Romeo has only confirmed the range-topping Giulia QV aimed at the BMW M3 and Mercedes C63 AMG but softer versions are coming. Boasting a 380kW turbocharged six-cylinder mill developed with help from Ferrari, the performance model can sprint from 0-100km/h in just 3.9 seconds – quicker than both the Germans.Alfa promises it’ll be a return to form in the handling department too, claiming a perfect 50:50 weight distribution helped by the use of lightweight materials including carbon fibre.The prop shaft, roof and bonnet are all made from carbon, while the doors and fenders are aluminium.There’s no official weight figure yet, but the QV is expected to tip the scales at around 1500kg.Boasting a 380kW turbocharged six-cylinder developed with Ferrari, the Giulia QV can sprint from 0-100km/h in just 3.9 seconds.At the front the Giulia adopts a aluminium double wishbones with what Alfa calls a ‘semi-virtual steering axis’ to give an ultra-pointy nose.By also gearing the steering to be quicker than any other car in this segment, it seems the engineers want to give the car a sensitive and alert feeling like the current range of Ferrari supercars.The rear suspension is by a multi-link arrangement, similar to most other small sports sedans.Like the rear-drive German super sedans, the Giulia QV also employs a torque-vectoring active rear differential to give the best possible on-limit handling balance.Active aerodynamics are also part of the package, including a small splitter which automatically deploys when the Chassis Demand Control system senses it’s required.The rear of the car also features a big lower diffuser that looks like it’s been snatched form the Ferrari parts bin, which seems entirely possible given the Giulia QV was developed by a team of ‘skunkworks’ engineers.The first pre-production cars have already begun rolling down the assembly line, but right-hand drive customer cars won’t be ready until late 2016. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Australia CEO Pat Dougherty confirmed today that the new Alfa Romeo Giulia will be coming to Australia.

The top selling cars of Audi, BMW and Mercedes are described as "cold, technological, boring products with zero emotion" in Italy today by the man who is leading the - latest - rebirth of the historic Italian brand."Premium cars today are cells designed to separate you from the world and the road. Premiumness has become another product. A sea of indifference," says Harald Wester, CEO of Alfa Romeo. The Giulia flagship has a twin-turbo V6 engine and rear or all-wheel drive"The new Alfa Romeos put the driver back at the centre. It's never just a machine. It must be an extension of a driver's soul."The Giulia looks good and has impressive numbers, headlining an $8 billion investment program that will create eight all-new products with the objective of lifting global sales from less than 68,000 in 2014 to more than 400,000 by 2018.There is little fine detail beyond a preview of the Giulia flagship, which has a twin-turbo V6 engine and rear or all-wheel drive to tackle the BMW M3 and Mercedes-Benz C63 performance sedans.But the Giulia is totally upstaged at its unveiling at the Arese headquarters of Alfa Romeo by a true Italian icon, opera singer Andrea Bocelli.The blind superstar gets a standing ovation as he performs Nessun Dorma from Turandot while the Giulia is driven on stage behind him, but he shows his own feeling about cars in one sentence."I used to listen every day for the sound of my father's car coming home," he tells an audience of more than 500 hardened motoring commentators.Right-hand drive cars will not be ready for Australia until the third quarter of 2016He is followed by the man who provided the drive and the cash for the Alfa comeback plan, Fiat Chrysler Automobile boss Sergio Marchionne."It's no mystery that Alfa is one of the projects that I have been most involved in. It's been crying out for revenge. Giving voice to the real Alfa Romeo was a moral imperative," Marchionne says.Trial production of the Giulia has already begun but right-hand drive cars will not be ready for Australia until the third quarter of 2016 and there is no confirmation yet of any models below the QV flagship.The Giulia was created from scratch in only two years, using a 'Skunkworks' program similar to the Lockheed-Martin jet fighter project in the USA in the 1940s. It's a four-door sedan that's promised to drive like a sports car, with benchmark quality for an Italian car, and even a new Alfa Romeo badge that's been updated for the 21st century."The brand is on the verge of re-taking its rightful position in the market. It will once again be one of the leading symbols of Italian engineering and style," says Marchionne.
