Wink My new ride

Extended apologies to the fiat forum.

i am now fiatless. the cinq sadly had to go, well, to the scrapyard that is. So i thought id bite the bullet, get a loan, and get new(ish) car.

So, what do you think?, and yes, its the 160. and yes, its a lil bit faster than the cinq.

i questioned this myself, and "he said" his son was planning to buy it off of him, and was driving it for a few months. his son put the wheels on and sold the old ones, but when he came to get insurance of his own, he couldnt afford it... the log book was never sent off, hence one owner.

Re: My new ride

At least it ain't a 105 too many owners of them who think they are rapid when they are just not!

Quite a rare 5 door too, standa out from the 105's then.

Get a TF badge on it.
