I believe I was one of the first to place an order for a 100HP (before that I had a white 1999 Fiat Punto 60 S - bless her).

We saw a black one at Thames Fiat along the A4 in December last year & placed an order just before Christmas. I didn't get mine until February (a week longer & it would have been an 07 plate, d'oh!!) but I LOVE it despite ****-taking from some of my friends! :bang:

I agree with everyone's comments though - you don't tend to see a lot of them on the road! In fact I've only seen three since I got mine in February - one was the one in Thames Fiat's showroom, & I saw one in the Oxford Services just off the A34 early in June & one driving through Woodley last week! All three were Electroclash Grey.

Were any of those you guys? ;)

Nice to meet you all - would love to go to a meet sometime & show my mad car off - he's called Vivien by the way! & Electroclash Grey is the best colour IMHO. :p

Can't remember his surname but his first name was John (in his 50's),very helpful garage it's the 2nd time i've brought from there .I test drove the Black one (it's still for sale) it was real dirty on the outside but it went well:D
 
Yeah it's a great garage.

I was really undecided as to what colour to have it in - black or Electroclash Grey but I kept comparing the black one outside & the grey one in the showroom eventually decided! The black one always seemed to look really small, even though that was the one that caught my eye in the first place.

I believe I test drove the New Orleans Blue one.

I test drove the black one that is still for sale also, I was going to buy the red one they still have for sale as well i believe. But fortunately for me they had a brand new unregistered New Orleans Blue one with all the desireable extras parked around the back so i did the deal there and then!!

Lucky! :eek:

In hindsight being one of the first to spot a 100HP was not such a good thing.

If I'd have waited awhile longer maybe I would have had your luck, M100 NSY, & wouldn't have had to wait 10 weeks for them to put the few extras I wanted on my car! :bang:

I am not a very patient person...
