No Z4 driving. Reason:

Fiat make great little cars. I've had a Panda and an Uno. You can hurl them around at 9/10ths whereas in the M You can only use a fraction of the performance on the road. Plus, any Abarth is a cut above the rest.
Nice car Dice! :driving:
 
One of my friends had a yellow Cinquecento Sporting back when they first came out. We all thought it was great fun until he was in a relatively low speed accident and nearly died.

Seriously, a bubble jacket would be a safer bet in an accident.

Not just Fiats either. I had a Peugeot 106 GTi when they first came out. Great car, handled beautifully... but made out of tin foil. I was unfortunate enough to make contact with a lump of metal on the motorway. Nothing big at all, but it left an apple-sized inch deep dent in the bonnet. Made me think what would happen if I ever came into contact with anything more substantial... :o
 
Two more:

I know it's not a safe car and I hope I don't hit a truck/tree/pedestrian (or anything!): Airbag is not a standard but hey, I have two :thumbsup: .

Anyway, happy and safety driving for one and all :driving: .

I know what you mean. I had a 205 GTi when I was 18 and apart from wondering how my face would fare against the hard airbag less momo wheel in an accident I never really thought about the potential death. I do however look back and shudder now.... especially when I think about how i drove it :driving: :evil:

Dice. It does look like a very clean little fun car. These wee GTi type cars are great fun, we had a Twingo sporting as a pool car at work for a while and everyone loved it.
 
Back in the day, my friend had one of these as his first car. It made lots of noise but didn't go anywhere quickly! I spent most of its time breaking down and leaking!

Thank you for the kind words!
I know it's nothing compaired to a Z4 but in some twisted way I love it :D . If it was a Fiat Punto, I wouldn't care less but in Finland a Seicento is a rare car. No one, I mean no one, knows what it is. Even the MOT-engineer was surprised ("What the hell is this?") and they do see a lots of cars.
I've been reading the Seicento forum and they are really modding these little midgets. Topics are like how to put a 1,4 16v engine and pictures of the projects. A Seicento going 0-60 in 5,2 sec.!!
I know it's crazy but as I'm gonna keep it, who knows :evil: ...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
