Get ready for a basic Focus/fiesta, or if your really unlucky an Astra or Corsa.

I got an '08 Fiat Bravo 1.9 Turbo Diesel...has climate and cruise control. Will enjoy testing those out! Even the blower is controlled electronically, makes my car seem old now! :laugh:

lol, are Fiat's not reliable then?! They're Italian aren't they, not up to Ferrari standards then.

Driving to Essex tomorrow so will get to try it out properly on the M25 but for 120bhp it seems very nippy around town. My mondeo has 90bhp (as standard), although it's probably abit more with the mods and it would probably give it a thrashing!!

Ferraris are utterly unreliable.

My brother in law went on a Ferrari OC drive to Marinello, out of something like 15 cars only 4 made it without an issue.

Unless you have 911 Turbo, then that gets reliability, looks, style and everyday use, and is technically a super-car.
