WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
FUN - in capital letters.缤纷的大写字母. That?s what Fiat?s Punto Cabrio is about.为何?菲亚特收盘什么?收盘puntocabrio约. But what of that styling?但这种造型? You?ll still either love it or hate it - no in-betweens.你?当地还是爱它还是恨它--任何中间道路. My only observation is that it has always looked far better in the metal than in the photos.我唯一的发现是,它一直将远远高于在金属照片. Fiat designed the original Punto as a cabriolet right from the outset, so the car is strong enough to negate the need for the unsightly rollover bars that you?ll see on soft-top hatchbacks like VW?s Golf.菲亚特punto原设计为cabriolet从一开始所以车是足以否认抛弃有碍观瞻滚转吧,你呢?当地看到软顶厢型车一样64+15?收盘高尔夫球. Instead, there?s a clean line from windscreen pillar to tonneau cover, all of which improves the driver?s visibility as well as looking great.相反存在?收盘线由清洁挡风玻璃支柱tonneau盖所有这些都提高了驾驶?收盘能见度以及寻找伟大. Should the worst come to the worst and the car roll over, those windscreen pillars are a lot tougher than they look and will withstand more than twice the car?s weight.要来最差最差的汽车滚过去,更甚的挡风玻璃支柱比他们多看看,并经受了两次车?收盘体重.

Although you can find tatty examples circulating for around £2,000, a little extra outlay will buy a far cleaner Cabrio.虽然你可以找到旧循环例子两千英镑左右,小的额外支出,都会购买远清新cabrio. £3,000 will land you a 1996 model year N registered 90 ELX 1.6 and the last of these on a 1997 P plate will fetch around £3,300.3000英镑你将土地登记氮1996年示范elx1.6和过去90年对这些板块将卖到1997磷3300英镑左右. Many feel the 1.2-litre 85ELX is by far the superior proposition and from a safety perspective at least it?s hard to argue otherwise.很多人觉得120公升85elx是迄今为止优越,从安全角度命题最少?收盘否则难以争论. These cars start at around £3,450 for a 10997 P registered model, ranging to around £5,250 for a low mileage 1999 V car.这些车启动了大约10997英镑3450磷注册模式大约为5250英镑不等低里程1999年五座车. There?s also the benefit of Group 8 insurance as opposed to a Group 9 rating for the 90ELX.?收盘也有利于反对八国集团保险评级为一组990elx.

Under the bonnet of the 85ELX lies what Fiat claimed to be the most powerful 1.2-litre engine in production ?头盖下的谎言所85elx菲亚特号称最强大的1.2公升引擎生产? the 16-valve 86bhp ?FIRE?16气门86bhp?火? unit.股. This replaced the original and bigger eight-valve 1.6-litre unit.这取代了原先的大八瓣1.6公升单位. Thanks to lighter overall weight and increased efficiency, the 1.2-litre unit, though smaller in size, gives the Cabrio even better performance than the original.由于整体重量轻、效率提高了12公升单位,虽然规模较小,赋予cabrio比原来更好的表现. Rest to sixty comes up in 12.3 seconds and top speed is an impressive 106mph (this is a 1.2-litre car, remember).其余60来秒钟,最高时速达在3月12日是一个远大106mph(这是1.2公升轿车,记得). Handling meanwhile, is still safe and predictable - though a little less roll through the corners would be nice.办理与此同时,仍在安全和可预见的,虽然少,通过滚动角落将尼斯.
With the triple-layer hood up (and raising it is a pretty simple process thanks to the electric motors which take it up and down), wind roar is intrusive only at motorway speeds.同AAA级层罩起来(和升华,是经过相当简单的过程,其中电机接手上下)在轰鸣的侵扰,只有风高速公路车速. With the hood down, however, forget about listening to the stereo (which has useful steering wheel-mounted controls) over about 60mph.随着罩下来,但是,忘了听立体声(已有用方向盘装管)约60mph. Though the front windows are electric, the rear ones are wind-up jobs, which means you?ll need to have a back-seat passenger on hand to help you if you want to lower them on the move.尽管前面有电动窗,后座的是风岗、这意味着什么?当地要有备用座位乘客警员帮你,如果你想降低他们的动议.
