Okay guys I need broom yellow in my life and have a couple of options I'd like to run by you
Option 1
Fiat Stilo 1.9 JTD 115
Option 2
Fiat Bravo 1.8 HLX 115
Stilo...
For: Modern, diesel (false) economy, more toys, fresher styling and of course red neck nitrous (remapping, and other tuning options).
Against: Modern, diesel (horrible smelly crap), more stuff to go wrong, bigger more expensive tyres, depreciation.
Bravo
For: Cool, soon to be classic, negative depreciation (in theory), 115 1.8 GenIII 128 engine so Punto HGT cam's and few other bits to give the car more poke and less angular styling.
Against: Rare-ish so parts could be problematic, bottomed out in value so while insurance is cheaper the coverage will be as well and tuning a future classic will be a moral issue (ish).
Both cars are 115bhp and performance will be similar and even though the Stilo will be a little more nose heavy I imagine both will be as happy on the road or track.
What do we all think?
Comments and votes please.
