Fiat 500

[oracleslave]

The Aygo is a bit manly for me and I quite fancy a Fiat 500 in blush pink. What does the panel think?

Sorted then, Fiat 500 it is. Although they're a bit pricey for what they are. Wouldn't mind another Aygo or maybe a Citroen C1.

How about the Grande Punto? It costs only slightly more but it's a higher category car. Or else the new Mazda 2? I am quite appealed by that too. Value for money I'd rather go for a medium size car like Focus/Bravo/147. And if size is not an issue then a second hand Audi/Mercedes/BMW. The only mistake I would never make is to buy a Passat; it might make me look like a notorious tape changer monkey-boy in CZ, if you know what I mean.

Does anyone else read Francko's posts with a 'Frankie Dettori' accent in mind??

You're missing the whole point. This is a supermarket runabout for the missus. Why would I want to pay Audi/Merc costs or even 147 costs for a car that basically sits around all week and does a couple of miles at the weekend?
No kids so don't need any space.
If we go away for the weekend I usually rent a decent Beemer.

Why replace the Aygo then other than because the missus said so? Or why not replace it with another Aygo?

Toyota to a Fiat... does it need to be reliable?

To answer the 1st question, the missus always gets her way
To answer the 2nd, that's what I would do.
