A Big Hello From Me

[Drakey]

Hello all.

Just joined the Forum after a quick look around, cracking site.
I know I probably shouldn`t ask questions in here but it`s quite a simple one...

Why should I think about buying a Fiat ?????

I`m a solid Vauxhall fan, but my wifes had a Fiat Uno and now drives a Cinquicento SX, both have been fault free.
Everyone I know, frowns/gasps/takes the P, when I mention my next car could be a Fiat.
Quite interested in the Croma (my wife like it as its roomy for kids & shopping)
and love the solid look of the Stilo, (2 door if I can sway her) JTD.

Are they as bad / unreliable / costly, as people make out???

who cares what people think
i get people sayin my uno is aload of s*** but hey
i love fiats

must admit the croma does look quality but thought about a Grande Punto?

oh and welcome btw :wave:

The new Puntos do look the biz but I`ve a 2yr old, still in car seat usually stuck in the middle to seperate the 10 & 13 yr olds. With the food shopping etc, space is quite important hence the wife liking the Croma, and me being concerned about a 3-door Stilo.
Could cover the kids in vasaline!!!!

haha! Teenagers ent that bad i was 16 in feb and my bro is 14, he doesn't tend to argue with me - ends with him on the floor or hurt
Stilos are nice kinda the sensible but sporty sort of car i guess. Croma looks nice with some big alloys (16-17s)
GrandeJ's GP is sweet! he's at work today and getting his new exhaust fitted though, sre you could search for his GP

what about the new bravo?

WOW that Bravo looks very nice, that new, in that get-up would be well out of my price range though.

Howdy!
If your a Vauxhall man the Croma would be a good halfway house for you.
I sure somebody told me it's built on the same chassis as the Signum.

Yeah, really quite like the Croma, not my usual choice of motor, but in the right get-up, leather, alloys etc it`s a really nice looking motor.

I've got a Croma and its been a really practical family car, which is also fun to drive if you want to get moving - and loads of standard kit at a bargain price!
