Hi everyone,

Finally got my new Fiat TwinAir Cult, in Tech House Grey, last Monday. I was supposed to pick her up last Saturday, but the finance dept. ballsed up. After nearly a week of ownership... She's quite different to the MG TF, but the acceleration is almost the same. Far nippier than I was expecting! And I've settled on her name Eloise, Italian, and taken from the last letter of the plate.

Once I have hit my 5 post limit... I shall share images!

Congrats! How exciting! I'm a new 500 owner too and feel your pain re the finance ballsing up! Mine was a week 'overdue' as well but well worth the wait! Can't wait for pictures :)
 
So... Here we go

Trading Bea in, for Eloise. Quite a difference!

I've gone from a rather uncomfortable 2 seat MR layout sports car, designed for tearing around country lanes. Which she excelled at, but was starting to get costly to keep running, and was horrid in a city. To a slightly more practical and comfortable city car. I'm sure I'll learn how to get the best out of her in the country lanes, without the feeling of going off the road on every bend. I still think I'm driving an MR car half the time!

I just wish I could have afforded to buy the 500, whilst affording to keep, and regenerate the TF... Best of both worlds!


More, and better pictures to follow when I get a chance to take her out on a proper photo shoot.
 
Finally got a couple more pics... here she is. I want to go onto tow. And get some more soon.
