Duracell Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 to be fair , most cars , nowadays , don't 'drop to pieces', in the first year.. the Fiat i had in the seventies (great engine , but crap bodywork) i poured concrete in the cills to get it through MOT..argghhhh.. Alfa's were as bad, in the seventies.. I know, my dad owns a 70s Alfa, I spend half my holidays checking the blasted thing for rust. My first car has been a Fiat Panda, very cheap, and very cheerful. And very reliable. Italian cars have caught up. French cars are the unreliable ones, but they don't get the bad reputation they deserve for it.

Gritstone Ram Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I had a fiat. It was an embarrasment! Everyone called it the biscuit tin. I called it a pandaghini. What a joke it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
