The car is looking even better in Maranello red than I first tought it would:icon_thumleft:
Extremly happy with the color:icon_thumleft:

[Stormi]

Yup, because they have the garage in the next city, so they make it ready for delivery there. The autolink truck delivers it in Fredrikstad and they have to drive it to Sarpsborg for final washing and comsmetic clearance before delivery to the customer:) They informed me about this before I ordered. They will get theire own garage in Januarylol

Okey, okey, makes sence ;) Just teasing lol

[VilleV]

[Animo]

Wow! I love the colour. Congratulations my friends. :icon_thumleft:

[wreckmaster]

Thanks guys:icon_thumleft: I think Guttemamma is very happy with her new car:icon_thumright: And the boys is really thrilled about it, they run around telling everyone that they got a red Fiatlollol I think the entire kindergarden knows allreadylol

[Bain]

Very smart! :icon_thumleft:

That´s just how Fiats are supposed to be!!!;):D Red!

[wreckmaster]

That´s just how Fiats are supposed to be!!!;):D Red!

Absolutely true Ville:icon_thumleft: I must admit that it is looking absolutely gorgeous in red:icon_thumright: But I would not like to change the color of my 500 in to red, because jive blue also is a fantastic color. Really finishes off the retro feeling:icon_thumright:

[Stormi]

So. Comments of the new Bravo ? Any good ?

[wreckmaster]

So. Comments of the new Bravo ? Any good ?

So far so good:icon_thumleft: I really enjoy the torque of the diesel engine. Feels so much more powerful than my old Astra:icon_thumright: The only thing I really dont like is the tow bar....Looks like:aktion082: But other than that it is a amazing car... I tought it was a bit better space between the front and the rear seats tough, but it`s no problem really. Have put seat protection on the rear end of front seats because of the kids dirty feet when coming home from kindergarden:( Have only driven about 100km`s with it so far, since it is supposed to be Guttemamma`s car.... And she really enjoys the turbo diesel powerlol I think her motto these days is: Pedal to the metallollol

[Guttemamma]

.......And she really enjoys the turbo diesel powerlol I think her motto these days is: Pedal to the metallollol

:icon_thumright:
Offcourse I like the power of the turbo diesel ;) It is much more funny to drive this car :icon_thumleft:

lol

[Stormi]

Am I glad that you are happy :) One more time and YOU GUYS REALLY
" NEED " THIS:

I will try to get a sign like that to have on my garagelol After all we have three Fiat`s nowlol

[pittiplatsch]

Bella macchina!

This week I am in Vienna for work and the car rental at the airport had a Fiat Bravo for me... so this week I change my 500 with a Bravo. The only problem is that it is the 1,4 90bhp version. When I accelerate, the main effect is that it's getting noisy but there's hardly a speed increase... (I am used to the Multijet-500)... ;)

:thanks2: Here it is the otherway! We went from a 1,4 90bhp petrol Astra to the 1,6 90bhp diesel Bravo, and what a difference:icon_thumleft: We love it:) I hope my wife ( Guttemamma) will be just as happy with her new Bravo as I am with my lovely 1,2 500:icon_thumleft:

Here are the pictures of the decals Lefteris made for me:) I think they suit the car really well as they are pretty discrete. If you did not knew that they where "fake" you would not be able to tell that tey where not supposed to be there:icon_thumleft: Lefteris did a really nice job, so thank you again Lefteris:)

Am glad you like my gift for your new car my friend, is the decals colour close enough to the maranello red?

Yes they do :) Looking very good I think ! Lefteris did a good job :)

:icon_thumleft: That is awesome!! It will for sure help with resale, one day.

Hopefully, but that is at least 4 years in to the futurelol

I tought until yesterday......... When Guttemamma came home with a Golden Retriver:eek: How on earth should we fit 2 adults, 2 kids and a large dog into the Bravo:eek: It is not possible!

Guttemamma said: Just buy another Opel Astra wagon......yeah right:mad:

I might be looking for an second hand Alfa 159 Sportwagon tough.... Online there is a couple of 2007 AR SW for around the same price as I can expect for my Bravo... Not going to take up any more in loans, thats for sure! And I will loose a lot of money on the Bravo I am afraid:( Will have to think a bit about what to do......

[Kertallica]

Instead of getting rid of your Bravo, you could build a dog rack on the roof, or you can create a dog trailer lollollol

Good idea:icon_thumleft:

lollol

Went to the Fiat / Alfa dealership yesterday just to ask what they would give me in Trade in price for the Bravo if I bought a new 159SW.... Well, lets just say it`s not gonna happend:(:(:(

Think I will keep the Bravo as it is OK if I remove the hatshelf..... No room for luggage toughlol But thats why I have a tow barlol

[wreckmaster]

For sale:(

[Cyberdog]

Good luck with the sale Wreckie, I am about a month behind you with selling my 500.

[VilleV]

The new owner is going to get one well looked after and clean Bravo! Hope it sells quickly!

[Jor]

:wow:, it's looking almost newer than new! And a beautiful colour too! Good luck!

[wreckmaster]

Thanks guys:)

[Pethead]

Good luck Thomas! I hope and wish you will sell it soon and with a very good price.

Thanks Pedro:)

[wreckmaster]

Well the ad is now gone out! And there has been NO phonecalls on it:( Even tough it was priced as the cheapest 1,6mjet 2009 on the advertisment site(www.finn.no/bil).

It is not easy to sell second hand Fiats in Norway, thats for sure:( 500 is easier tough as it is way more popularlol

Looks like we will keep it, if not a sudden buyer should appear. To be honest, this dont make me cry as I really did not wanted to sell the car. But on the other side it would be nice to get rid of that car loan. But atleast Kathrine has got a new better paid job as I have told you before so it will be easier to keep it when she starts working there full time in May:icon_thumleft:

[Cyberdog]

I don't think it's easy selling 500s either, the grey import market dumps the market. I've been following the 500 part of FINN for a long time, and I think I was very very lucky when mine sold so fast. There was only one interested party for the week it was advertised, and luckily she bought it..

There is not much movement in the 500 market either..

Glad you keep it in Scuderia Wreckie ;)

It is still in the Scuderia and it is soon time for some Scuderia on the paint... Just have to play a little with my new Kestrel DAS-6 pro first;)

Finally got rid of that horrible Biltema thing then? You're gonna love the DAS 6, it's in a whole other league. Personally thinking of getting the new small cleanyourcar rotary :)

I am itching to get some polishing done.. So don't be surprised if the white AVIS 500 I drive around in now becomes the shinyest one in the fleet :)

Yes sir! I went for the groupbuy on DCN, since the price for the DAS-6pro was not too bad:icon_thumleft: Just have to buy some pads before I can get started;) But I am not sure if I will be able to buy that before May salary since I have to buy two new summerwheels for the 500 on the April salary:)

Be sure to post some pictures of the shiney rent a 500 thenlollol
