Fiat 500C Convertible – launched in the UK today
The sun is shining for Fiat at the moment as it rampages around the world’s beleaguered car companies, but it’s also shining today as Fiat officially launches the Fiat 500C Convertible on to the UK market in the middle of the best spell of weather we’ve had in the UK since 1732 (not quite – […]
Fiat 500 – kind to animals and the environment!
We’ve moved on a long way from car adverts that centre around cars driving through fire, with a Stadium Rock soundtrack to get the adrenalin and testosterone flowing. On the whole, they are more considered and/or more humorous (although some – particularly in the States – are still dire). A good example of the current […]
Alfa Romeo going to the USA
With the dust now starting to settle on Chrysler’s move in to the hands of Fiat, more detail is starting to emerge on exactly what the US will get in the way of Fiat products. We already know that the only Fiat making its way to the US is the Fiat 500, but it now […]
Fiat 500C Convertible – The Video
The first UK Fiat 500s arrive this week, ready for the launch, and that has no doubt inspired Fiat to send us a set of three short videos of the 500C, which we’ve strung together for you at the end. Apart from a few decent days, Summer hasn’t really got under way in the UK. […]

Fiat 500 in New York
We reported last week that, contrary to rumours flying around, Fiat will not be taking its range of cars to the States and simply sticking Chrysler badges on. It is their intention to provide platforms and some engines to their newly acquired Chrysler operation, and develop cars in America just for the American market. But, […]
Fiat 500 going to America
After the deal with Fiat to take on Chrysler was officially signed-off today, a few details are now starting to emerge about what exactly Chrysler is going to be building, and selling, now it’s effectively being controlled by Fiat. Many thought there would be an influx of less than reliable, less than worthy Fiats simply […]
Fiat Invades Europe! Aims to take over Opel, Vauxhall and Saab
Fiat are busy little bees of late. From being a virtually bankrupt car maker just a few years ago, they are busy rampaging around the world playing ‘White Knight’ to ailing car companies struggling for survival in the crisis that has engulfed the car world. Recently confirmed as the key component in the rescue of […]
