Everyone: what do you love..

What I love about Blancmange:
She turns heads
She's so light and easy and fun to drive (therefore after being used to driving the tank that is my other car, I find it alarmingly easy to slide/ drift on wet roundabouts :eek:)
She has a personality and needs listened to
She's comfy
She's cheap to insure, maintain and easy on fuel
She's nippy
 
I love my Sumo tyres, I reckon I have found some real gems here! :D
 
for the purple one, i love her
-colour
-body work
-interior
-wheels
- the attention she gets

for the black un, i love her
- colour - (black hides a multitude of sins! )
- tatty bodywork - (great for parking anywhere and not caring)
- interior -(can chuck my horse riding stuff or car parts in and not give a dam)
- wheels - ( me beloved maragoni tyres, love the wet.)
- the lack of attention she gets - ( great for when youve not done your hair!)
 
Rarity
The hand throttle, who needs electronic cruise control?
The thought of 645Kgs, RWD and 60-70BHP
Reclining seats
Being able to fit it in a van!

yep the rear demister element doubles as the aerial. there's a few cars that use this method, even my 1985 ford orion did. i dont know why all cars dont do it, they should imo.

the washer jets are on the black plastic at the bottom of the windscreen.

the aerial is fine as long as the heated rear window doesn't break!!:rolleyes:

hmmmm the tipo has the same hidden washer jets, means i can't get any wacky washers :(:p these tasteful things!!
 
Nothing at the moment....its lost a fair bit of power,it rattles and rumbles. h/brake is poop blar blar the list goes on.

Used to like...the flames out of the exhaust and the sound when the cam kicks in:D
 
Hmmm good question....

1) Lots of torque @ 1800 rpm, so much fun!
2) Heated Seats :)
3) Cruise Control; removes alot of hassle on long distance driving
4) Fact the badge winds most people up, especially BMW's :D
 
What i love about Barney:

He starts first time every time compared to my hubbys newer and bigger car

The fact that when he gets to 60 i know he's giving it all he's got

The inside is filthy and still he doesn't complain

I only have to look at him and he makes me smile

His quirky air blowers that decide themselves where abouts they will expell the air

He has a personality all his own

And after all the bad press the 1.4 has he just keeps on tickin (literally, the cam and tappets need replacing) lol

And lastly....he's all mine!!!

In conclusion I LOVE MY CRAPPY 1.4 BRAVO
