I think it's a timing belt and not a timing chain?

I love the gear stick! It's not a shitty E.V, or Tesla you know.

Great video! love a hire car abroad

My very first car I could call my own was a sage green w/dark green roof, suicide 4 door fiat late 1950's 0r early 1960's model I recall. My father had bought the car used and somewhere along the line it broke down and he left it parked next to the garage. As a little boy I had more fun sitting in my Fiat pretending I was driving all over the world as there were no limits to where that car could take me. Sadly as a teenager someone came to the door and asked to buy the car and offered me $50.00 which I accepted. Looking back now I regret selling it because I had my own magical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang which I miss to this day.

I wouldn’t worry about the steering wheel, my experience tells me that Italian leather steering wheels are pretty good. Now French cars are a different matter. I have know them to fail within two years under warrantee.

Bit of a bad design call considering the geography where fiat is based. I Suspect the infotainment is thermal throttling. It might work better in more northern cooler climes. Not too keen on the SUV-like X but as I get older, the 500L does appeal based on pure practicality (and yes I did like the multipla). I just hope they don't turn into rustheaps like most cars do when they get anywhere north of London on this salty-roaded sceptered Isle.

Those look like the exact same climate control dials I had in my 2010 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 😂 Also, the same gear stick that was offered in the later Giulietta Cloverleaf models. Surely they can't still be raiding that same parts bin?

Fiat to touch them ! 😂

The scratchy plastics in cars now ,we refer to as audi quality 😂 ,I have an x and it is way better finished than the plastic A1 that my daughters boyfriend has. It truly is dire plastic rubbish .
