General So long, and thanks for all the fish

So, after 7 years, 9 months and 28 days, and 76,400 miles, I have parted company with my Bravo. It's been the most reliable car I've had ( so far ) in the past 43 years.

2 pictures, the day I bought it, and the last time I saw it!


BTW, I have a pair of genuine Fiat roof bars if anyone is interested.

How comes you sold it?

How comes you sold it?

Suspension a bit tired, probably good to have a second cambelt change soon, new tyres needed soon, no cruise control ( OK without 7 years ago, need it now ), radio aerial f***ed, felt a bit unrefined next to wife's Cee'd.

Fair enough!

You kept the Bravo a good while! Glad it's been the most reliable car you've owned so far despite you owning it for such a length of time.

Please tell me the C4 has gone too though - you can't sell the Bravo and keep a car that left you stranded in the outside lane of the M11!!

C4 has gone back in November. That was my wife's car. We've now both got Kia Cee'ds ( Cee'd's ? ), both in track red. She's got the 5 door hatch, mine is a Sportswagon, with a 1.0 3 cylinder turbo

good service from a Bravo.. worth noting,
also worth noting FIAT have nothing you'd contemplate replacing it with:bang:

we had identical RED 5 door FIAT's years ago 1 petrol , 1 diesel,
you should be safer with yours

my in-laws had 2 x KIA over the last 10 years, not BAD car's,
just "worse than FIAT" dealer support let it down, :shakehead:

as with anything in life, if it works for you..stick with it,

all the best,
Charlie

You took great care of her and she returned the favor.

So long my friend.
