Aston Martin or Fiat?

[RosscoPCole]

Sounds like a strange question, but was thinking about which of the ultra expensive city cars would you prefer. The Aston Martin Cygnet

Or the Fiat Abarth 693 Tributo Ferrari?

I know I will get shot down in flames for this but I think both are a good idea as a small luxury mode of transport. Much more sensible and cooler, in my opinion than a Chelsea tractor.

You wont get shot down in flames, both are cool little cars. Not everything has to be a 740i barge!

Out of the two, I'd take the 'Ferrari'. It has good performance and looks amazing.

[sklar]

I'd take the Abarth, but I'd be constantly moaning about the awful harsh ride.

[XitUp]

Probably the fiat. Neither are luxury though, imo. Not enough space and buzzy little engines.

I'd quite like the toyota iq if they didn't fib and say it was a 4 seater.

The Fiat! didnt know Aston were soon to be selling a car like that! it looks fucing awful!

[Robb F]

The Fiat is sexy, I'd be happy to drive that.
Whereas the Aston is just an abortion of a car

[Waugh-terfall]

Fiat any day of the week. Do they do it in white?

[mnkiboy]

Got to be the Fiat. As much as I try and understand what Aston are doing with the Cygnet, it will always be a Toyota IQ.

Aston. You've fked up.

[jw golf mk4]

the Aston looks as bad as a Smart car! Wonder how much they will cost!?

[Animala]

The fiat, no contest.

[Shaw Tarse]

My own money, neither!
If I had to drive one it would be the Fiat.

The Cygnet is a nice idea but the execution of it is utterly abysmal. In fact they should just execute it, it is as hideous and obscene as a diamond encrusted mobile phone cover.

[jeff666]

I love Astons,,, but it would have to be the Fiat for me.

[thinfourth2]

The Fiat

Then i wouldn't look like a moron who has spent way too much on a small crappy hatchback. Only the true geek would know the owner has way more money then sense

[Animala]

When are these due to be released? caus there's an Aston dealership just 3 minutes away from me and i'd love to go see one considering I shouldn't think i'm gonna see a lot on the roads

The Cygnet is a Toyota pretending to be an Aston Martin, intended to appeal to wealthy fashion victims.

The Fiat is a heavily modified 500, intended to appeal to wealthy enthusiasts.

(All IMHO)

The Aston will be bought by people with more money than sense, who know fk all about cars.
They will go EVERYWHERE at 40mph (including past schools)There will be long tailbacks of traffic behind as they travel. At junctions they will be unable to make the decision of when to pull out without a written invitation and basically be a pain in the arse on British roads.
Watch out for them!

[k-ink]

Which gay noddy car must keep you up all night

Go for the fastest one. HTH

[Chicane-UK]

Fiat - by a country mile. The Cygnet is an appalling eyesore!
