A car can be fast, but if its poorly made, it will get no where.

lol some kid i work with is always trying to outdo me (i really couldn't care less who has a nicer car but he does)
he's got a 1.1 Fiat Punto (old style) looks ****
i've got my 1.4 Quiksilver 106

he just bought a massive (massive being in size not price) exhaust system, just so he could say to me "i've got a bigger exhaust than you"
which is stupid as i couldn't care less, as you'll hear a roar and see him chugging along in his Punto.

i also hate the new look puntos..does anyone actually like them?

clio extreme sport looks sweet

with the alfas engine = sweet sports engine in a normal car, its everything else that goes wrong with em, like electrics handles some do have engine problems, i looked at a few on ebay n the owner say, " its got a slight knocking noise at the bottom of the engine" then go on to say " all it needs is the engine rebuilt or a new engine" but if u do find a nice one they are sweet and so fast its crazy.

as for kud feel sorry for that guy coz u only got to touch the pedal and those 106's just go on their own. and i nvr rly liked punto's

I've only just started learning to drive, and I haven't had a chance to get a car for myself yet (hopefully will get that sorted in the next couple of weeks ^^).

I have driven my Dad's car once though - BMW 6 Series 645Ci.

I wouldn't mind getting a car like that, especially since I don't think my dad will let me drive his very often =(.

thats a shocking price i know u live in london and maybe its a desireable car for stealing but 1800 is probably almost X3 of cars value.
