Hello all
Thanks to everyone for all the information you've given here. I was about to ask a similar question, but rather than start a whole new topic, questions have been answered here!
I haven't posted for a long time on the forum, but some may remember wintry pictures of my 1.2 Active last winter:
Anyhow, it's time for me to upgrade, and I'm making the move to either a 1.9 JTd or the 2.4 Abarth (non selespeed). Can't really make my mind up - do I want the extra grunt and features of the Abarth, or should I go with more fuel economy with the diesel.
Either way, I'm sure I'll notice the difference compared to my Active. That said, the Active 1.2 has been a superb car, and shifts surprisingly well for such a small engine.
I'm also going to discuss with the dealer whether I can transfer my old claw alloys to the new car, and let him put the new wheels on the old 1.2 for sale! Think that'll work?
Cheers
Bren
