I'm really wishing I hadn't just bought a new car now! Curses!

Second one down is a bit of an awkward angle, but the others look great!
Fingers crossed...

My first impression was it's a Fiat Bravo with a Mito grille, but I'm starting to like the car now. Pity it's just a Bravo in a frock and not the icon the Giulietta was. Still with the new 500 being s Ford KA in a frock and the BMW Mini being a Chrysler Neon engined Vauxhall Astra Platformed marketing exercise what can we really expect? Cars aren't designed anymore by artists they're computer designed, built by robots and have to conform to the bean counters expectations rather than the customers. I'm sure it will be a nice car but it will never be a great car. For my money I'd buy an original Giulietta and a life time supply of wax oil and easy start. smile

nono Bravo is C platform, Giulietta is (I think) the first car to use the C-Evo platform.

You don't think maybe they're just using the same name do you?
You know, not actually pretending the two cars are the same?

Just a thought...

Don't be so ridiculous - next you'll be saying my 159 never won a grand prix...

Next you'll be telling me that £500 33 you put a bid on wasn't quite what you thought either!

In this months Feel magazine it says the Giulietta has "a new 'compact' platform, constructed from lightweight aluminium and steel for minimum weight and maximum rigidity" which seems to imply that it is a new platform.
I can see myself with one of these in a year or so.




a good subject for my 2000th post

I'll wait and see the real thing before I make my mind up. Then wait another six months and save £10,000 buying a second hand one. smile
