It's a form of madness isn't it...

Owning Italian cars is definitely not for the faint hearted and yet there's something about them that's addictive...

The punto, despite still being the youngest car I've ever owned, has given me more problems than the other two combined including today when it decided to detach it's undertray a mile from home. Any other car would have been part x'd by now and yet I can't bring myself to say goodbye to it.

What the hell is it about Italian cars?

Addiction.

Theyre like cocaine in the motoring world.

Pffft, undertray? yours is shedding parts it doesn't even need.

My old black sei deposited the exhaust from it's cat backwards onto the road.

It was a nice present for the police car behind me at those traffic lights :laugh:

Because Italian.

Wish it was only redundant parts it loses

Losing the undertray seems to be a common fault though. Jodie told me the undertray on her punto came loose during a trip to Scotland so she and Alex just yanked it off and carried on.
