Fiat Barchetta
by Andrew Holliday
Twelve months after falling in love, I have experienced both sides of the story. Buying in Germany saved me £2000, but so far I have had to have a new wheel bearing, heater matrix and variator (free).
I still look over my shoulder - and love it - when walking away, and it always draws attention. That shape is timeless - even in this age of Audi TT, new Toyota Celica, Vauxhall VX220 and all the edgy Fords. Plus, it goes sideways beautifully.
It's a true sports car, take it or leave it.
