The New Fiat 500 Lounge! Great Car! Advantages: It's modern, great on petrol, smooth, great choice of colours for car and steering wheel. Disadvantages: the USB port was a bit dissapointing because it does not recognise ipods only MP3 I bought my Fiat 500 Lounge in March and I couldn't be happier with it. mine is a very girly car in my opinion but Fiat do have some added options to make the car look more sporty ie outside interior sport designs. I guess also it depends on what colour you get. Mine is Funk White which is a very female/neutral colour, but the red and yellow colours are very sporty and I would say more masculine. I chose the Car from the look and bein a girl that's ... ...However I travel alot for work related reasons and soon worried that because of the small engine I would be struggling to bom it up and down the motorway and it would soak up petrol and cost me a fortune. Personally I find it to be a perfect, relaxing car to take on the motorway and whilst I can't push it too much, it's been nothing but great for me. And I have been so far very pleased with the consumption of petrol on long journeys. And driving ...

DAVE MURRAY Advantages: Good Fuel economy, light weigt body, stylish looks Disadvantages: Easy to get bumped on the doors in the super market car park. Great practical car, the 2.7 litre diesel model can give great fuel economy ,up to 46 miles per gallon if driven modestly. The car is well equipped and comforable and turns many a head if bought in black with 20" alloys. The new updated styling with its distinctive gills differ it from earlier models. On the down side there is no body impact strips along the cars length to prevent bumps form fellow shoppers at the super market., we always park ... ...(well away from other shoppers). Also maddening is having to keep the ignition key in and turned to one to use the car entetainment centre when the engine is off. Any how its a great car lets hope I dont get hit too much with depreciation when its time sell ... jaguars2 15.04.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Jaguar XJ6 3.0 V6	Reliability Comfort Security Looks Features
The M100 Lotus Elan: a classic roadster Advantages: Classic good looks and affordable rag-top fun Disadvantages: Leak-prone hood ...my 1990 "Lotus Racing Green" Lotus Elan S1, I thought I'd share my experience of owing this ground-breaking car. The Lotus brief was a two-seater roadster that would appeal to the American market. With this in mind, it's easy to see why the cabin appears so spacious - American's don't like to be cramped! The windscreen is shallow-angled and you get the feeling of being in a much larger car as the dashboard stetches away in front of you. The driving ... ...as among the best work Lotus ever did, the Elan is a sheer pleasure to drive. And so began my love affair with "B" roads! There is nothing like punting it off a roundabaout onto a stretch of twisties to make you grin like a simpleton. The Elan is forgiving, making even the clumsiest corner-taker look good. My Elan was the turbo variety - really the non-turbo's aren't worth any savings they may appear to give you at the time of purchase. I drove ... fallon005 16.08.2004 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Lotus Elan	Comfort Features Looks
WHERES MY MOGGIE GONE? NO NOT THE CAT, MY CAR! Advantages: FUN., CHARACTERFUL, CUTE, DIFFERANT Disadvantages: full restro cars fetch money, cheapos often need work. The morris minor is one of those cars i like to call "CLASSIC OF CLASSICS" when people think of classics, a lot of people think of the beetle and the minors! LOOKS Not bad at all for a car over 30 years old, infact quite good looking, its roundish!!! Most cars of its day were more square! It looks cute, and almost smiles at you, with those massive headlamp eyes! Like one of the other Morris minor reviews states, no - one smiles at ... ...Ebay and on Autotrader. But there is also specialist Classic dealers scatered about, just need to browse the the WORLD WIDE WEB. Overall, a very good car, if you are after a classic, then maybe the Morris Minor is for you! Hope it is of some help! ... jimmy2004 01.05.2004 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Morris Minor	Reliability Comfort Security Looks Features
The Long Goodbye Advantages: tough, not too expensive Disadvantages: extinct ...a brand new light mint Fiat 128 with a black stripe along the lower part of the body and dark grey all vinyl seats (sticky in hot Italian summers!). The Fiat 128 was introduced in March 1969 and awarded ´Car of the Year´ in the same year. It marked the start of an era of front-wheel-drive which has been adopted by almost every other successful design since. In 1971 the 128 Rally came on the market with a more powerful engine (1290cc and 67bhp), this ... ...we could reach the first Fiat garage in Italy where the mechanics could perhaps, but only very perhaps, help us more, he doubted that we would ever reach Sardinia with this wreck. This meant one night in a hotel in Seeberg, one of the most expensive resorts of the region! The Fiat mechanics in the first town south of the border found all this very funny, they made some derogatory remarks about Austrian mechanics, did something mysterious to the ...
