Me too. I absolutely loved this car. The smell inside, with the fake leather seats and the oil blended to gasoline... Hmmmm all an era.
Fiat 850 Coupé, 1965.
Sweet memories, this Fiat 850 Coupé. Not a super powerful one, to say the least, with its small engine ( 848 Cm3 ) but it was not a heavy car, and it was decent to drive. My mother had one, at that time, and we did Paris Dubrovnik with it. It was somethin...
That’s brought a flashback,
My friend had an orange one. Had such a blast all those years ago lol
It's funny that my Mum used to buy Citroën Dyanes instead...
We use to travel everywhere with hose rolling machines. ;-)
We owned three Dyanes,
If I remember correctly, the first one had a 400 cc. engine (with no pear-shaped lateral lunette), the second was blue, 600 cc. and the last one was bordeaux, also 600 cc. I learnt to drive in a Dyane when I was 9 or 10 years old!
Oh yes, my uncle had one of the first Golf with that dog on the wheel.
We can go forever with these nostalgic memories....
Yes it is.
I would have worn a Porsche Design Quartz at that age, or a Sarcar (my first wrist watch) or a digital Texas Instruments...
1970 Opel 1.9 Rallye Kadette I owned
I am amazed at the similarities in appearance of these two vehicles. My first non-American vehicle and I loved it. ...
I had a friend who had a Fiat 850 coupe. A really fun little bugger. Small and light is always right! My first car was also a VW bug. Fantastic off road but over time I realized I wanted to push
on pavement. I knew they had a reputation for rolling so after ending up on two wheels a few times I let her go and got something that handled far better.
