Italianjob's new (Polish) Italian job

[HMC]

Browsers of the News24 might have seen I was given a slightly battered silk cut purple Cinquecento sporting as a courtesy car....

.

 

Well the inevitable has happened and after a chat with the garage I'm now the owner of a very cheap, battered ( but fun) little fiat.....

 

 

 

My size 11s have coped quite well with having to tap dance around these

 

 

 

It's a bit battered but small city cars seem to suit it, and although not quick it's certainly a fun little thing to get around in.

[Faker]

Well done!

[Cavcraft]

Ace little things, well purchased

[spartacus]

Cool, they're a fun drive.

[DVee8]

HAHAHA well done that man.Another quality purchase.

[Bucketeer]

I'm not sure you're safe to be allowed out on your own.

[egg]

On my list of regrets that I haven't had one yet (or a Seicento). Insurance seems a little disproportionate on these in my experience though!

[Hiram K Hackenbacker]

Like the colour, not seen one of these chicky-chentoes in a while.

 

Think Taylor Wimpy / Redrow etc bought them all as templates for integral garages on new-build homes.

So I'm going to be the cheeky one and ask how much was it up also can I have first refusal when you want to sell it?

These are one of those cars that I've always wanted to drive but never got the chance too. I bet they are a right hoot.

[Tickman]

Brilliant sales technique.

[Six-cylinder]

Great Purchase, I used to have a "S" and always wanted a Sporting.

[HillmanImp]

When do you get the other half?

[Barry Cade]

Yeah! Dibs....  LOLed at the number plate. That is usually the breakdown code that comes through with older cars. DOK. Dead On Key...

 

We've had a red one,a yellow one and a black one, just blue and silver to go!

[Bobthebeard]

The 'sporting' badge looks a bit like 'snorting'....

Should go well!

[Burnside]

_{Great little cars these I've driven a 900sx and a very tatty Sporting that my brother briefly owned and both were fantastic fun. I can remenber seeing these last of the line Blue Sportings for sale at the Fiat dealers when they were new. Think this is my favourite colour too well brought!}

Wife has a blue sx, she really misses it. Would get another for her if we had the space.

Had a red S and put 165,000 miles on it. You can put it in a shoebox and tuck it down the back of the sofa when you're not using it. "Not enough space" isn't valid with a Cinq.

What, you don't have a cupboard under the stairs?
