i was made redundant just after xmas and the cinq was my second car used for work,therefor it's been sat there for over 2 months now other than being taken for mot,but still i wouldn't sell mine as good cheap cars are hard to come by,and people will probably need cheap transport when they return to work i would of though
sorry you can return to topic now :doh:
good luck with getting it on ebay,you may even get it cheaper than you expect
They are dreaming at £800
Hey Willi...
We are all at risk and I hope you get another job soon, but I'd expect the recession to last a while and prices to slip further.
The guy I got mine from was made redundant. I have lots of mates in the same boat, when I get a phone I expect it is bad news now.
Housing and stock exchange wont be the only thing that keep slipping. It will be like the 30's '29-'39, only saved/stopped by WWII... Prices of things dropped in the '30s, it was difficult.
My FIAT main dealer has some pre-registered cars, if I did not like my sei I'd part exchange for his demo or almost new 2nd hand, the pre registered seems too expensive, but they are not at list, even the new wont be at list, if you have money.

I remeber me and my mum walked into the honda/mazada dealer and said we are looking for a newish automatic yaris. We have 3k + a starlet (worth about 7/800 auto in book price), they basically told us to get to ****, wide wide bastards. might go back and try again
This was about 2-3 months ago

I was in a Saab delaer the other day looking at a lovely pre reg with a mate as he took a cash option rather than a company car.
We left the showroom in tears of laughter after 2 hours of hagling when the sales manager started to quote his kids school fees as a reason for not discounting. One day later and behold a phone call, all of a sudden he must have moved his kids to state school as the price dropped £2K. It was a Shame the volvo dealer was more accomadating in the meantime

I was made redundant at the end of November. I'd have used the seicento to get me to my new job that I start on Monday.
Well done on the new job, good luck
in the present climate you either have to keep the Known Alfa money pit as they are worth pennies and suffer the poorer fuel,insurance costs etc
or swap for a cheaper car, as has been inferred so far Fiats are not that far behind Alfa's in problems they are just cheaper to fix thanks to the volumes out there.
£800 is a lot of alfa fixing, you could buy 6 scrap parts cars for that
