Ive never read so much crap in my life!
Hopefully they stay well away from this place

as i said, the insurance costs alone would prevent most chavs owning a coupe. it isnt cheap for a 17-25 year old trying to get insurance on a group 17-20 car. i guess this is why they favour corsas , puntos and escorts . this is probably the first time that over expensive insurance is actually a good thing.

Have you not been reading Sam's posts lately?

im tempted to join up and give 'em ,but can't be arsed

lol @ patch!



... the thought did cross my mind
but then it may tempt some of them to come over here so I refrained

That would be a great idea. Have you ever considered some people like Ford's and know very little about fiats? Pretty similar to people that know a lot about fiat's and very little about fords when it comes down to it. It's not disimilar to a lot of people on this forum who know absolutely nothing about Jap cars, but are very quick to have an opinion on them.

I fail to see why anyone insulting a coupe bothers people so much. It's your car, so who cares what someone else thinks?

your off my Christmas card list!

Well, you are still on mine

I was just looking at her profile, it says she has "DD's" - rubbish!

let he is with out sin cast the first stone..... Maybe im just too librial but for the most part there comments about high maintenance (in comparison to your average ford running costs) are probably right, well from there prospective any how.

Live and let be? I find it ironic that people here are having a crack at them and there "chavy" cars....in response to there post about how "rancid" the coupe looks. Its all subjective at the end of the day.

For the record I have owned a XR3i, Nova, Supra, Vr6 passat, Mr2 mk2 and 1 and a load of other stuff. I life to think I have a well rounded option from first hand knowledge

My 10 year old daughter said that my car looked a bit chavvy today. She said it as we were driving away from McDonalds, just after she threw her happy meal box out of the window.

Little terror........

that just had me in stitches

. . . does that mean i get on insted?

The opinions on the chav site can be summed up in two words:

sour grapes.

When I had a pristine Mk1 MR2 a few years back my dad looked at it in something approaching disdain and asked "did you put all that... stuff... on it", meaning the standard spoiler, sideskirts and twin exhaust!

Cheek of it. It was 100 per cent standard.

Agreed.

Most of the people on that forum have the general knowledge and opinion of the public in general about Fiats and how cr@p they are.

Most of us are biased, because we have a Fiat.

All cars have their faults and the Ford owners know theirs, but Fiat has always been known as unreliable and cr@p and it'll be years and years before Fiat get rid of that reputation, if ever.

Fix Or Repair Daily and Fix It Again Tomorrow, two of the best known makes will always carry that stigma.

They don't care what we think of their Fords and let them carry on thinking what they like about our Fiats, it doesn't matter.

The moderating and admin team will not be happy at all if people start arguments across forums, it has happened before and will not be tolerated, please think before signing up on that forum.

As T has said, everyone is different and everyone has their opinions, lets leave it at that!

ok seen the light,wouldnt have joined up in the first place,ive been on another owners club and seen what happens when 2 sites get involved with each other sorry for my mis-judgement

no worries

Oh, please. Let's at least try and rise about the standard we are complaining about in others.

The same would obviously not happen to a coupe then.....they never break do they...

You do realize that Cosworth is one of the biggest proven names in motorsport?

Have you even heard of the RS200?

Bringing this back on topic, I think she's being aspirational saying DD. I'm at work now, so can't give the detailed assessment I'd like to and which the subject deserves, but from what I can recall they looked like a large B, maybe a C.

It would be a generous C as well Mr Cooper, however in the name of science, i would like to volunteer myself to study this further. I will go home early and ensure R Gertrude is not about, and thoroughly study the subject.

i agree, please do not start posting on their forum. next thing there'll be a couple of dozen max powerer's on here causing havoc. my aim was not to have a go at the chavs, it was just to point out that these guys are having a go at the coupe, which whilst not perfect, walks all over their corsas, escorts and nova's in terms of looks, style and performance. they have no idea what they are talking about, yet still think they're experts. i bet if you took any of them for a drive in a coop, they'd become instant fans.

i certainly wouldn't put down the cosworth though, i wouldn't buy one myself, because it still looks like a ford escort, but what an engine!!!! there's certainly a good rally heritage behind any of the cosworth fords.

most makers have their bad and good models. it's each to their own when it comes to cars. i know a guy who restores morris marinas and old austins as a hobby. whilst they're not my type of car (not at all, actually ), i cant knock him for the passion he has. my point is, those idiots show no open mindedness at all. basically if it has no bodykit and spoiler, its rubbish.

wow, that bex guy knows nothing at all!
im jumping in a bit late here but tbh no one is taking notice of the retard!

what he is putting down there is complete poop and we all no it.

the coupe is a retro car, for its age you cant expect it not to break down!

but on the other hand, really what does that guy know??

it would be far to easy to go onto there forum and give them GBH over texted but who care's!

and seriously....His Mrs is BUSTED!!!

i wouldnt evern touch it with Mario's!!!!! LOL

p.s DD's??? more like -A cup.

Thanks marco ;-) lol

She'd do after a few pints, if you could be sure you wouldn't have to have a conversation with her

I think this has sufficently roamed off topic now, so its time for beddy byes for it, all say bye bye!!
