Have to say the plus, because I have one.

Test drove an LE a few days before I deceided on the plus, and I just could not face getting into it every morning with that bright red interior cr@p going on. Would give me a headache!

(each to their own tho lol )

If you think about it, they are all limited editions....

16v only in production for was it two years?

20VT for a couple of years.

The LE for a year or as long as there was demand, although there was a big fuss at the time as more were brought in by Fiat than was originally advertised. This I remember put people who had paid deposits noses out of joint.

then the Plus

and 20VT(6)

They are all limited Classics!!

If you are half Portuguese you have a good dna.

In Portugal there aren´t many coops,when i was looking for one i took almost an year to find one in good shape(i find one perfect with just 25.000 miles )
I wanted to by an LE in Portugal but i couldn´t find one,plus were rare and very,very expensive.

But in Portugal the coop is a very respected car,because of his performance and aspect (the street racers like the coop a lot) .

But there is a good thing not having so much coops in PT, any place i go, there always people making good coment´s on the car and i asking what mark is.

Portuguese and Polish DNA

You based near Gaia? One of my customers is based there.

Most of my family live around Lisboa nowadays.

You opened a can of worms here!

Both cars hae there merit. I would say the Plus us subtle and the LE slightly less so

To me the LE feels like a very special car whereas the plus is slightly lacking. The seats look better in the flesh really honest!

The dash i would agree with but as the LE i like is Vinci Grey it makes no difference!

I hate black leather so it was an LE for me. I don't think I'll ever own a car with black leather as it's just too dark and dull.

I also like the titanium headlights on the silver LE as they blend in with the rest of the car - I'm not sure I like them on the other colours though.
