–News update–
Ive bought another Fiat Barchetta.
An early model but in very good nick.
Nice shade of metallic blue with a new navy mohair hood.
They really are a nice everyday car to run
Punto parts keep running costs down
good fuel economy and a secure ride makes them
a fun summer car
Having owned both models I think the Barchetta
beats the MX5 on all counts.
With stylish Italian design it must be a future classic?
George White Transport of Alfreton
picked up the car from Leicester
and delivered it to me here in France-£500 door to door
Not worth driving it back!
Ironically it would have been nearly impossible to have driven it back
Given the snowfall on both sides of the channel!
Remember my post on the Dodge Viper
that I drove back from the UK
for my French pal Philippe?
A little “worse for wear”,”tired and emotional”
he had let his pal drive the Viper home
3 am on a wet night………
He lost it,demolished a wall
and “marked” the Viper…….
6000 euros for a replacement bonnet(unpainted!)
3000 euros for a replacement alloy wheel
All this on the same day that he had been offered
a 2006 Corvette(worth 40000 euros in France)PLUS 10,000 euros
in exchange for the Viper!!!!!
Its all about timing,INNIT?????
