If you can identify the three cars in the foto you've come to the right place.

So what's the purpose of this page? Simply to share my passion for Italian cars with people who care enough to read on. My focus, as the title suggests, is on FIATs 'cause those are the only Italian cars I can afford! :o) But also because I've found it very hard to find good information on the net with regards to FIATs. I finally decided to quit griping about it and instead do what little I could to improve the situation. Yes, there's a couple of pretty good sites out there, but they're few and far in between. See my links at the bottom of the page.

So what makes me an 'Expert'?? Simple, I have a web page! But seriously, I'm far from an expert. What I share on this site is my own personal and practical experience in owning, maintaining, making faster, attempting to race, crashing and restoring FIATs. Hey, that kinda went full circle, didn't it?

More to come.
