The Croma had some good points, it was much lighter than the 9000, amazingly 1150 Kg against 1400 Kg, and galvanised (rust-free), but the interior dimensions & space were identical. Today you can get super minis at 1100 Kg. The Croma felt less cumbersome but more nervous to steer. I had the Croma for 10 years. The 9000 is more like: First line up the car, then fire the engine and off you go! Johannes
