500 Size L (NLC) Photo Added

Post by Doc883 » Mon Apr 08, 2013 3:02 pm

Just back from Majorca where I had the misfortune to spot many of the new Fiat 500 L's, L being Laaaaarge. First Mini now Fiat, why oh why, it's almost as big as an S-Max and hideous, as is the equivalent Mini :lol:
On the plus side did see a nice clean Renault 5GT Turbo in white, it must be the climate that stops it from rotting :thumbsup

If it sells and makes Fiat more money i'm happy with that - i'd never buy one but if it's a big fiat that sells (which has never happened before) then good luck to them.
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

Can't be any uglier that that horrible four door Mini, it's hideous.

I passed a nice clean looking white (pearl I think) GT Turbo on the M74 last week, not seen one of those in ages, looked great.

Way off topic but I was recently reminded of this photo of me - taken (I'm guessing) 45 years ago.

Image

My parents still live in the same house and my wife has a new Fiat 500*.

My plan is to try to recreate the shot sometime this summer using Steph's Fiat and the Exige in place of my brother's poxy old Mini Countyman. :mrgreen:

* I borrowed it one Sunday ... :lol:

Cheers,

Eric :)

Cool! I think that might be Campbell's new car on the right ;-) (sorry Cam - couldn't resist!)
