Looks like it's on its original plates
How many of these are left I wonder
In the UK, I think the Croma's problem was that it was a FIAT. The Type 4 chassis spawned good cars, but compared to its SAAB, Alfa Romeo and Lancia brethren the Croma was always the bottom of the pile. No doubt FIAT intended it to be that way, but given UK buyers' draw to "prestige" in this sector, it's no surprise very few were cherished. It doesn't help that the Croma was the ugly duckling of the quartet either, but they were good, capable cars and seemed to resist rust better than many of FIAT's other offerings at the time.
I can't remember the last time I saw one in the wild, however.

I had a Croma 2.0 ie Turbo.
I can confirm it was pretty quick and handled OK but had electrical gremlins which kept lighting up "lamp out " faults randomly. Usually bad earths, but I could never get it working.
With the back seats down, you had the exact space to fit a Kart in the back!

I’d be taking the cool Croma Turbo over a Saab 9000 every time, notwithstanding the cost saving over choosing the Italian. I can't remember the last time I saw one in the wild, however.
However of all the Type 4 cars I would take a 3.0 164 First followed by a 2.0 Turbo Charged Thema.
never driven one, but how about such Volvo Amazon with a Honda 243ps engine, pretty cool I thought, also a nice interior, not bad money for such classic in that state.
