[NoRC]

And I picked mine up this afternoon from the Fiat dealer

Very nice mob too, they gave my woman a huge bunch of flowers and were really polite an nice about the whole. Told me to bring it back after ive done 1,500k's for a checkup.

I got a 1.4L T-Jet 150 Sport with Red/Black Sail interior and Skydome

Will post pix in the next day or so when i get a chance to take some

The flowers are their way of saying sorry for calling it a Rimto.

Took the fiat up the mountains this weekend just gone, dam she flew up those roads! Suprisingly quick an agile for such a small motor.

Im so in love with this car

 

[Tad-bravo]

He means small engine not the car. Even then the car is more small to mid size by Australian standards.

yeh i was refering to it being a 1.4L

Aussie cars tend to have bigger motors under the hoods. When i opened the hood (odd the release is on the passenger side) i was suprised how much space there was around the motor... they easly could put a 1.6 or 1.8 in there but yeh anyways.

Yeah anything under 3L tends to be seen as small over here. What's the saying here, only orange juice comes in 2 litres?

It was a pleasant suprise to see so much space under the bonnet of the Ritmo, they generally tend to really pack them in under the bonnet these days. My 207 engine bay is really packed and it's only a 1.6.

Remember the bonnet release is on the same side (therefore drivers) in Italy!
