FIAT = Fix It Again Tony, or Feeble Italian Attempt (at) Transportation
The story goes that FIAT had to stop importing the cars when formal crash tests came into being, as the cars kept breaking down before they hit the wall... Heard them all. I've owned several Italian cars, and they've all been wonderful. I don't mind the stories and the ribbing at all, as it keeps the prices down so those of us who know how nice they really are can afford to keep buying them. |
