General New purchase! :D

Nice spec car for the money isn't it? :) Got any pics? I was dead lucky with mine. Got it for pretty much 'book' price, but it had full leather seats which I found out later were an £800 optional extra when new. Result! :)
 
I'm absolutely thrilled to bits with it, but I'm struggling with the stereo!! :/

Nice car :) They look good in black don't they? That's the only downside to mine - silver/grey isn't the most interesting color. Still love the car though :)
 
What's the problem? I think I've only used mine once. All my music's on a 16gb USB stick in the glovebox :)
 
It reads discs for a second, then comes up "CD error" and ejects the disc again! It doesn't like my iPod either: it would only play four tracks off it!!
 
Wouldn't know what to do about that :-( Maybe someone else here could help? Can you transfer your music to USB?

Taking the Grande back to the dealer tomoz. They said they'd have a look at the head unit for me. Fingers crossed they can sort it out, apart from that, the car is perfect!! :)

Had the same problem with mine that I purchased two weeks ago- kept saying CD error and spiting it back out at me.. took it back to dealer and it needs a new CD player! Under warranty mind :)

Very nice, I'm jealous! Looks like a series 2 with a few series 1 bits Fiat still had lying about. I'd like to advise you don't change anything on it, as yours is the Grande epitome :D

Don't you worry, I ain't modifying that, lol!! I still can't believe I own such a beautiful car, lol!! I'm still getting used to it, as it's a lot different to the 2004 Punto I used to own. For me personally, it's the perfect car: plenty of kit, looks great, safe, and it's even pretty much as economical as my old Punto 1.2!! It saddens me that so many people ignore Fiats in favour of inferior cars (ie fords!)

The place I got mine from said to take it back there, and they'll take the head unit out, and clean the insides, then put it back. Fingers crossed, that'll sort the problem out! :)
