They look really good - Much better than the awkward Croma!

Argenta..? Or what about Fiat 132 Bellini..?? Grin

That would open the way for a new 131!? Cheesy

Those are old renders, with the old croma grille. By now fiat Croma is no more imported in England, but the second series fits a new grille.

I personally think no one should buy new fiat cars thats only until they provide a proper back up service parts etc for the older cars like our 131s, instead of when you ask a dealer about a part etc they look at you funny & answer a what? whats a 131 sport? this has happened to me, sorry just my 2 cents worth.

not true my friend i have 1976 toyota celica ta23 restored over the last 5 years & the parts department manager in local toyota dealers was extremely helpful in getting me said parts i needed for my car, so why cant Fiat offer this service?

Mercedes are also very helpful with parts for older cars, although I feel they are less helpful now than they were up to a few years ago. The prices can be eyewatering though, some prices have gone stupidly high for certain parts recently.

not so i afraid even though the salesman was 3 years younger than my 131 he showed me the fiat parts system & there was no 131 132 127 128s on the computer, there was 126 though, he even showed me the store room full of old stock to see if i recognised any parts alas none for me except a nos mountney leather steering wheel with a fiat boss kit for very cheap ?20, i rest my case here me man no back up from Fiat what so ever, so its only really 131 sport & super  fiats that do it for me anyway, the rest is toyota celicas thats what rocks my boat.

Don't suppose there was any Fiat 130, 132 or Argenta stuff in the room full of old stock was there?
