Just thought I'd add a few more photos and info:
Picked the little fiat up on the 2nd January after ordering August 3rd!
Payed for in December...but registered in January to have 2010 car but without paying the extra VAT.
Spec 1.2 Lounge in BNW with italian tricolour strip, bump strips, Red leather (lovely) upgraded 'o' spoke alloys, fiat valve caps and chrome number plate surounds.

So far (130 miles) no problems, much more fun to drive than I expected as long as you keep the revs up (hence 33 mpg so far) ride not as bouncy as feared. Seats look good but hard to get comfy because they pivot from the rear when lowered and put pressure under your thighs, so have to put up with higher driving position than I would like.

Overall lovin' it.

:yeahthat: plus loads of people post their pictures on here when relevant to the post title so don't worry that you have broken any rules. At least yours were nicely sized, unlike some other "red leather" pictures that pop up quite regularly on here.

At least yours are in the members motors gallery which is the preferred location as opposed to being hosted on other sites.

also ......... Mark may be correct when he says "you'll grow to love him" but I know where I would put my money, lol.

No worries, hopefully photos sorted and following the rules now.

Cheers

Julian

Don't worry we're only having a joke I do apologise if you thought I was having a go at you or anything.

Don't regret it! Join in and have a laugh.

It does look nice and you seem to be getting roughly the same mpg as I do with mine. Given the conditions , not too bad really.
