After more than 13 happy, safe, reliable and troublefree driving years and almost 225.000km ( 140.000mls) with our m.y. 2000 Fiat Palio Weekend 1,6-16V, we decided it's time for something new.
My wife, doing most of the driving in the Palio, has some minor muscle problems in her hands, making shifting sometimes a bit difficult.
Last saturday, we bought a brandnew, black metallic Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint TCT ( (automatic), 1,4 Turbo, 170HP...!!
So at least we keep it all Italian, Giulietta will do nice next to my Alfa Romeo GT jtd, I suppose.
We now have three (!) Alfa Romeo's, 1985 GTV-6, 2004 GT jtd, and 2016 Giulietta.
Finaly, it's farewell Palio, the most reliable car, I've ever owned, it'll be strange to see it leave soon...
