I know! Theres been several times where I've stopped and looked twice at it, and then realised what it is.
Cheap and poor copy cat of a real luxury car, but I'm sure they're good in America, if thats what you like

I've seen one with a bloody Bentley badge on it.
Blasphemy, that is.

The funniest thing is you can actually buy full on bentley kits for a 300C.....
I'm sure they're not that bad at all, and I bet it's loaded to the hilt with gadgets and the like?
Posted by arien617

It's practically 90% plastic.

Posted by masseur
nice one! you might want to get that number plate changed as its a bit blurry
no sunroof? I can't live without a sunroof, or better still... a convertible
anyway, enjoy! it looks great!
btw, whats the one in front? is that a mazda 121?
Posted by Muhammad-Oli
@Masseur, its a Nissan March/Micra... Whatever they call it in your part of the world!
Posted by fatreg
A sunroom in the UK Big M!? there's no need for that at all is there?! AC sorts me out as and when I need it........
and yeah it's a Nissan Micra....
Posted by masseur
A sunroom might be a bit much
but beeing Aussie, I love the fresh air and almost always have the sunroof open and windows down, or in my Saab Cabrio back home the roof was always down unless it was raining
if its cold them you just pump up the heating
Posted by fatreg
surely it's a moon roof in Oz? I know in the Middle East they are marketed as moon roofs.....
windows down, roof open... and then it rains....
Posted by masseur
dunno, I've always understood moon roofs to be large sunroofs, i.e. they cover much more area of the roof. Certainly it was called a moonroof in the Lotus Esprit I had
Posted by fatreg
seems good ol' wiki can shed some light....

Less of the missus please!
Just took my friend to McDonalds, why the hell i wanted to go there i don't know all i've eaten is burgers the past few weeks.
20 miles on the clock so far, i love it. Just need to get Blue&Me sorted and i'll be made up, it doesn't seem to want to download my phonebook but had no problem pairing with my iPhone, no music detected either but i expected that with it being windows based, oh well.

Normally an oldy can handle that job far better than a new phone, Lexus still use a T630 for the job!
Posted by fatreg
Maccy D's!? I've avoided that at all costs!
20 miles? oooooh... mine had 21 on it before I'd even driven the thing!!
Posted by haynesycop
Being a new phone has nothing to do with it. It's the fact that BLue&Me was developed by Windows and i'm using an iPhone. If my music had been transferred and formatted on a PC then the car would read it but it's telling me there is no media, it's no bother as i can boot into Vista just wanted to leave that as a last resort though.
Posted by arien617
It does, we had customers come through with their BlackBerrys, N95s even a bloke with Vertu and LS600 hL. All of them failed. the good old T630 prevailed!
Posted by haynesycop
Believe me it is there are people out there on the Fiat forums and other places that have had issues, purely on the basis of Windows software and Macintosh product. I know people who have been able to connect old phones, new phones without any problem even iPhones formatted on a PC very easily. I'll sort it eventually, it works without any problem when i read it a phone number, i just can't get the car to download the phonebook, but i have rung my mum and it worked a treat.
Posted by fatreg
best get yourself a windoze machine then... hehehe
Posted by arien617
Or put your phonebook on a different phone, download it through there, and then use your iPhone as you would after that?
Posted by haynesycop
Here is a picture of my baby!
Happy now? Thanks i love it, tell your Auntie to get one, well worth the money, there is a 7 month waiting list at the garage where i got mine now, so glad i took the plunge early on.

Still as shiny as ever though.
Check how close this guy was to my car though.
I checked so carefully and lucky there wasn't a mark.

Ahh, my dad said he saw loads in Iran earlier this year but I never looked into what level they're at - shame we don't have them in Britain, nice looking cars.
