I've always liked FIATs. I remember when my dad got his Punto when it was just two years old. We bought that to replace 10 year old Lada so it felt like a Rolls Royce. Puntos had electric windows and height adjustable seats when the same price Fiesta just gave you a bog standard radio. No airbags though :( But my dad had a massive crash in it, the car was a crumpled wrecked but we all got out without a scratch.
Even my 1.1 Panda some how often makes me smile. I might drive the 13 year old Fiesta next week to make me realise how good it is as I forget and I need appreciate as this will be the only brand new car I will probably ever own in my life and I plan to keep it for a hell of a long time yet.
