Second Hand Alfa Romeo 159 Centre Console

The Alfa Romeo 159 was produced as a single generation running from 2005 to 2011, with a facelift around 2008, so all 159s share the same basic platform and interior architecture. Centre consoles from pre-facelift cars (2005–2008) may differ in trim finish, switchgear cutouts, or gear-lever surround style compared to post-facelift examples (2008–2011), so crossing that boundary is worth checking carefully. Confirm with the breaker that the console from the donor car matches your exact model year before buying.

The Alfa Romeo 159 was sold as both a saloon and a Sportwagon (estate), and because the centre console sits in the cabin ahead of the handbrake rather than being structurally tied to the body, the fitment is generally the same between the two body styles. Trim level and facelift year are more relevant factors than body style when matching a console. That said, confirm the specific part number and any cutout differences with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

The 159 was sold in the UK in trim levels including Turismo, Lusso, Ti, and Q4, and while these trims differ in equipment and interior finish, the centre console itself is largely the same structure across grades. You may notice differences in surface finish, stitching, or the presence of certain switch blanks depending on the donor car's trim, but these are cosmetic rather than structural fitment issues. Mention your trim level to the breaker so they can match the finish as closely as possible.

No — the engine has no bearing on centre console fitment for the Alfa Romeo 159, whether you have a petrol or diesel variant. The console is an interior trim part that matches by generation and trim level, not by what is under the bonnet. Focus your search on the model year and trim level instead.

A 2006 console comes from the pre-facelift 159 and a 2009 console from the post-facelift version, so there is a chance of differences in switchgear apertures, armrest design, or trim finish across that 2008 facelift boundary. The underlying mounting points may still align, but we cannot guarantee a straight swap. Ask the breaker to compare the specific part against your registration before purchasing.

Give the breaker your registration number, model year, trim level (for example Lusso or Ti), and body style (saloon or Sportwagon) so they can match the console as closely as possible. It is also worth mentioning whether your car is a pre-facelift (2005–2008) or post-facelift (2008–2011) example, as switchgear cutouts and finish can differ. Providing photos of your existing console can also help the breaker confirm a good cosmetic and functional match.
