What happens when you stick Alfa Romeo's 2.4 JTDM 20V diesel engine into the Alfa Spider? How about 200bhp, a top speed of 141 mph and the ability to go 52.3 miles on a gallon of diesel (Imperial). Combined cycle is 41.5, and in the city, the Spider gets 30.7. How 'bout them apples?
Thanks to a diesel particulate filter, this Spider complies with Euro IV emissions standards and the upcoming Euro V. For this kind of clean performance, Alfa Romeo will ask you for £28,995. If you're keen on the car but a little short of cash, check out another picture (and the press release) after the break.

DIESEL ALFA SPIDER STRETCHES THE MPG POINT
Alfa Romeo has recently put its thoroughbred diesel powerplant – the 2.4 JTDM 20V unit that develops 200bhp – in its award-winning Alfa Spider.
The result is sports car looks, performance and handling with city car fuel consumption.
Mated to a six speed 'box, this Alfa Spider guarantees an entertaining and engaging drive with maximum torque available from as little as 2000rpm. Charging to a top speed of 141mph, the Alfa Spider 2.4 JTDM covers the 0-60mph sprint in a very respectable 8.4 seconds.
Around town the diesel Alfa Spider consumes 30.7mpg. On long legged journeys, it will stretch a gallon of diesel for 52.3 miles and in the combined cycle it will return a wallet-stretching 41.5mpg.
The Alfa Spider's new five cylinder MultiJet engine complies with Euro 4 emissions limits and incorporates a DPF (diesel particulate trap) that eliminates fine dust, already meeting the limits currently envisaged for future Euro 5 legislation. Significantly this feature is a 'for life' system that does not need to be regenerated with additives, and will be eligible for tax incentives.
