Saw this car on a car hire website whilst trying to get prices for a trip to Romania. Thought it looked very nice. Does anybody know whether there are plans to bring it to the UK?

It is basically a booted Grande Punto. Fiat will not be bringing it over here.

Yes that does look nice, very nice lines. The so is the grande Punto, thats another good looker. So is the New 500, thats a sexy little number as well. The bravo is another really good looker.

They are either really gorgeous or pig ugly like the sedici, croma. The Albea and the multipla are in the hideous league. I cant believe that anyone could make the multipla more ugly, but they managed that in the last facelift.

Only really interested for interests sake. I would have thought it was a Bravo saloon, not Grande Punto- boot is 500 litres on reading some info.

Interestingly it looks to be one of the cheaper ones to rent over in Romania at the moment- cheaper even than a Dacia Logan estate, so may well book it (once the flights are booked) and see if it really is as nice as it looks.

It is based on the Grande Punto and built in Turkey which is no bad thing as most Fiat Dealers will tell you those with "Turkey or Poland" badges tends to have no issues ?

Can't see it comming to the UK as it's a saloon and people do think .."ah Fiat Saloon they think ..small hatchback
