I just got an email from my little sister - 38yrs old   - to show me her new car.  I'm fairly up to date with these kind of things, but I've never seen one of these before.

 

 

I won't be offended by anything you say, so fire away!

Looks good actually

Fiat took over Chrysler.

It is the old Dodge Journey badged as a Fiat Freemont.

That looks pretty good (certainly better than those 500Ls) and I'm sure they'd be able to sell quite a few over here

Ah, I thought it was american until I saw the badge

 

That 500L is a horror, I see one every day at the park and ride now.

Yep, saw quite a few in Rome. It would have been very high up my list of choices if they sold them in the uk.

I seam to remember being in a Taxi with them in in Germany some years back.

ans they have them in the Volvo V70 to http://cars.uk.msn.com/reviews/volvo-v70-d5-se-lux-review-2013-onwards

They bought it to replace their three year old Renault Grand Scenic which had been nothing but trouble.  Fingers crossed this might be a tad better built.

Vw have been doing them for years, optional extra for quite a while now, mk1 Sharon springs to mind.

My dad's old volvo 940 had one built into the centre armrest

I like that but shame it's a Fiat

Certainly has some presence. I like it.

Yeah, I do try and advise them on these things.  Trouble is, she's all the way down near Marseille and her other half is French.  I can neither get to see her for a chat to offer my wisdom or convince her Gallic husband that he might be somewhat off centre with his judgements.

He's very French in his views - I'll leave it at that.
