My Father had a Fiat....

ok correct about the quattro Jack1 but bmw are pure scrap
"bolly get your knickers back on lets fire up the quattro"

Have to say the Quattro was nice and did scream the 80s but in our house we had every variant of the Delta hf's from 85 to 94 and the Italians do build fast fun cars...

One of the few things I do not share with my dad is my passion for cars
and somehow he made some wrong desicions..I Think...
started with a VW bug (not too bad)
Then a Citroen GS (Massive engine problems on the way to the Switzerland holidays
after that a 1977 passat (later I took it to turkey and my brother to Portugal where it was wrecked due to  insufficient brakes or steering (or a combination of both) it was a white station 1.6 GLS or something , did 100 kmh in second gear I still remember (First upgrade with plastic bumpers)
then the Opel (Vauxhall) Rekord 2.0 3 speed automatic proved to be the worsed choiche to pull a caravan to the south of france.
the 1988 Passat which followed was not too bad and after that he asked me for advice for its succeder.
I suggested a Toyota Corrola Verso as my mom did not like the Touran (Finally a toyota Sid...)
As you can see, never a Fiat and I have to admit, never my favourite as well untill I bought the 131 as a cheap "drive kids to school" for my wive.

Cheers Henk
