      I don't even think you can buy a Renault in the USA. Do they still make those?

        Fiat recently bought up a big chunk of Chrysler. Neither company has a very good reputation over here (for reliability). I think a Fiat 500 would be fun to own - what is the reputation of Fiat in Europe? Are they reliable?

          There was a cat sat on the bonnet of my car. Once the car got wet* it left. * One bucket of water delivered from the window above.

                Nagy its a Renault Grand Scénic its already a big pile of poo, the cat probably improved it

                      I'm quite sure it didn't actually shit on your car. Most cats have more taste than that. ;P

                          Well my missus nudged into one in a car park 3 years ago and the wanker driving it put in an insurance claim for over 600 quid including a broken rear window. So either they're not very reliable or their owner's are lying sunshines.

                                        Um. He did mention the "R" word - which can't even be used in the same sentence as "Alfa Romeo" (or "Lancia" either, my first car was a Lancia)

                                        At least they don't come pre-rusted, like regular Fiats.

                                          Lancias did too. :sigh: But then, I think they were / are owned by Fiat anyway...
