A Cinquento is the better car on paper......

BUT

Who drives on paper..... :dozing:


:proud: nice one.

Yeah thanks for that video link liam, hadn't seen that before was good to watch. A friend of mine has a cinquento and I always beat him round the bends no matter how hard he tries. ;D Minis rule the bends.

LOL

"The heater matrix looks like a Darth Vader face mask" I've never looked it like that before - innocence lost!! :proud: ;D

As for the "I'm 6ft 5" and I can still fit in the Fiat" - I'm 6ft 8" and I can fit in a mini! :dozing:

I gotta say I like the bit, "That mini is something else, and it accelerates to 60mph 3 seconds after than the Fiat" :proud: ;D :dozing:

It was funny when he lost the end of the Fiat and then the Mini comes round faster without anything happening and has to slow down so it doesnt hit the Fiat!

I have a feeling the Fiat loosing the back end was due to some handbrake action for show boating to the camera.

Iv kinda got both of these cars, the mini and a Seicento sporting.

I have no idea which loon at Fiat thought of calling it a Sporting, there is nothing sporting what so ever.
