2018 Vauxhall Adam Energised, 1.2 petrol, manual, 70bhp.
It’s a lovely metallic blue, with black A, B and C pillars and roof.
She loves it and her daughter has the same (different colours though).

Color is nice, such a refreshing sight in the sea of grey/white/black vehicles.

I guess everyone is doing floating C-Pillars now.

That Opel/Vauxhall has been on the market for 5 years now though. With that floating roof.

Yeah, it’s not so much the floating roof thing that bugs me, it’s that swoop on the rear pillar.
In the US market, I blame Nissan above all, but everyone is doing it.
Wouldn’t be so bad if it was actually unique and not copycatted.

Ye’, it’s a beautiful colour.
I think more Brits are going for colours rather than the ‘safe’ ones.

If small cars were more popular in the US I could have seen that here as a Buick.

Nah, if Buick gave you the Adam, they wouldn’t give you the Jam, Slam or Glam.
They’d give you the Adam Rocks or Adam Rocks Air. Lol.

That’s a good looking car.
70bhp is enough, I can’t help myself from web-shopping for one of these:
Anywhere from 54 to 72 bhp (assuming PS == HP exactly).

EWW. It’s been ruined.

You can’t be American then. Lol.
So many bemoan anything with less than 200-250bhp of smaller than a 2litre.

My U.S. spec 2013 Focus was equipped with a 2.0 160 hp base! I don’t think you can get anything close to that in base euro spec. It had plenty of power in my opinion.

Thankfully there are more than the Rocks and Rock Air.
Ecoflex,
Glam,
Jam,
Slam,

I get 148bhp from a 2016 1.4TSi ACT.
The number of people on here who when they are told a new car has a 1.6 engine say, ‘needs more power’, ‘needs at least a 2.5 litre engine and RWD’, etc...

I’m Canadian, so I’m ok with that.
Also, our 2-car household has more than 500 hp, and I’m ok with that, too.
