We just saw The International.
It was about as bad as the Transporter franchise, except that the only car chase was between an Alfa 164 and a pair of Nikes. Skip this one unless you're really dying to see a 15-minute shoot-out in the Guggenheim.
Guys like Clive Owen and Jason Statham just can't catch a break with these espionage films.
Speaking of international transportation, and Alphas, I figured out I can pick up a late 90s GTV for less than £1k.
Oh noes! You picked the one Alfa that looks ... well, it looks like Zagato penned it.
Something like a GT (sans the V) or a 147 won't work out?

The GT's are pricy, and the only 147 I've found in the beater price range has a "noise coming out off gear box,but drives and starts without any problems."
Hillman Imp for you, then?
