View Full Version : Arosas, a suprising ammount of fun
Just had to drop my R in for its 1st service and was given an Arosa as a curtesy car. Was really hoping it was that crazy 1.4 TDi, alas it was not, a 1 litre petrol. But still the novelty of doing 80 mph at 4500rpm is quite entertaining. Also the fact that the fuel gauge wasn't moving at the same rate as the speedo was nice :)
Bit soft and noisy, but the stereo is loud enough that you can't hear the road roar.
I'm looking forward to taking it on the windy roads to work tomorrow. :D

You should try a 16v Sport Go-Kart with roof :D
I agree with your comments on the 1.0 Arosa.
My wife has one and I really enjoy driving it (great fun to throw it about)
I would love to drive a 1.4 sport model :D :)
:cheers:

If you think they are fun then try a Lupo GTI, they really are mad!
only trouble is Lupo GTI new price £12,999 compared to Import MY03 Leon Cupra £13,579........Now which is the better buy?!;)

Hmm..... :think:
Have to agree. My girl friend finally got a 16v sport about 6 months back. She can not drive at the moment so I have been using her car to go to work. Really nice small car and nearly every car on the road underestimates the thing so much. :)
Good fun to drive, might have to keep it a bit longer.
