I've been a fan of FIAT Motor cars for some years now. In fact I have owned over 300 of the little beauties.

It all stated back in the 70's when Ford escorts and Hillman Avengers reigned supreme. Nobody seemed to want second hand FIAT's so they were going really cheap down at the local car auctions.

My first Fiat was a Mirafiori CL 1300cc, but what a mover! For my £70 I got a car with 5 speed gearbox, carpets, cloth seats when Escort and Avenger owners had plastic seats, plastic carpets and 4 speed box. What luxury I thought. Since then I have bought nothing else.

I purchase a Fiat Strada for £100 from around the back of the local Fiat dealer - put some test and tax on it and serviced it then went all the way to Italy in it. it didn't miss a beat. Fantastic.

I recommend them - go on, you know you want one.
