Fiat are not bad cars. The Stilo is a nice one, the Barchetta is fun, the Ulysse is good. Ok, the Seicento and the Panda are not the best
But Fiat Auto owns Lancia and Alfa Romeo too !!! don't forget it ! And Fiat Spa owns Ferrari and Maserati !.... don't forget it !

Well when I was at primary school in Germany FIAT was

F EHLER
I N
A LLEN
T EILEN

what meant: "Error in all parts "

Well 11 years after that we bought our first FIAT
How ironic life can be ? But I think these rumors are spread by rivalling companies because they are too jealous

Re: Meanning of FIAT

can someone tell me where i can find parts for a fiat x-19 in south GA. I appreciate any help. Also this x-19 was some type of special addition with a different motor. It'll do 150 easy and still have control like its doing 60. Stock hight it barely comes up to most peoples stomach.
