New girl aka Mrs Kreaper!

[DrDrew]

Welcome

 

[Elly]

Welcome

 

[funky_d]

Welcome! Twingo is a must! (although we might all be a little biased here...)

 

[Gemstarr]

thanks for all the welcomes, its not a definate yet but from what I've seen I really do like them I do however have a bit of love for the abarth 500 too!

We shall see where it goes...

 

[Chicken]

Don't get a 500 it's a fix it another time. Worse than renaults

 

[Gemstarr]

cant be worse than my Found On Roadside Dead...

 

[jra3d]

Well least the problems not circled

 

[Kreaper]

Now now nothing wrong with having the problem circled!

Least you know at some point there will be a problem...

 

[jra3d]

Haha like you know there will be the Renault rattle

 

[Kreaper]

Yea exactly.

Also know that I will be following Gemma one day picking up the parts that fall off

 

[maggi200]

Least the interior on the 500 isn't totally terrible and it's got some poke in a straight line. And they're not terribly unreliable, but do have quite short service intervals. In fact they don't seem as fragile as a 133.

Maggi your supposed to sell her the twingo not the 500......

 

[maggi200]

:lol: as long as its a white cup ph1 then it's a winner. Anything else is a waste of money

Only gordini worth going for is the 1.2tce gt in black if you want a twingo with a slightly less rubbish interior.

(The current fiesta has a mess of an interior IMO. Like being in a Nike football boot so I'm not being anti Renault)

The residuals make the 133 a bit of a bargain though if its not a dog. The 500 is still a lot used. In the price bracket though and reliability into consideration a current swift sport has gotta be hard to beat

 

[Kreaper]

We have noticed the price of secondhand low mileage twingos to be pretty good not seen any in the metal yet as its a few months off until we are actually ready to buy one.

Also the insurance is cheaper then the 500 for both of us on it I actually bring the twingos insurance down! Haha

 

[maggi200]

My insurance is cheap cheap for what it actually is, I'll give it that. And it's a right hoot across the back roads. And even doing normal driving it does feel a little special considering its humble components.

 

[MovingShadow]

I still prefer the engine of a Renault over that of an Italian, even if the interior is better.

 

[Westy]

Hi welcome hello. What's for dinner ?
