Gringo

[CentoEvo]

Well it looks like Fiat have done well with the Gringo.
4car website gave it a 4 out of 5 rating, i don't like the look of it, the dash is ok but its too MPV like.
Uses the trusty 1108 and 1242 FIRE engines too, but 15 seconds to 60 with the 1108 [:0]
The only thing i like about it is where they put the gear lever, CTR stylee [8D]

I just had a look at that site and spy bot said it was trying to download "avenue A.inc, this is a known threat. because i have lastest version of spy bot i was able to block it. if you don't have spy bot s&d i sergest you download it from download.com then run the update for it.
As for the car they say its going to be called panda mk2 because the french said gringo sounded to much like a renault of a simaler name! is it going to be galvernised steel or is it going to rust like old panders i wonder.

I read it

Crude, basic and poorly equipped?

Never did like Channel 4.
