Just noticed something today - on the journey to work, looking around at traffic I counted precisely one Fiat - a 2004 Punto.

Now, I'm not saying I saw every one of the hundreds of cars that went past - and Fiat 500's are generally somewhere in the mix occasionally, but I did notice a fair few cars and Fiat was notable by its absence. Peugeots are in short supply also, but that's probably because over the past decade their company aim has been solely to just build "a car", devoid of all character - but Fiat are known for developing value yet funky stuff.

Whats going on?

Fiat 500s are everywhere in the Bristol/Bath area, the new 500L also seems popular.

You see the occasional new Panda, the 500 is pretty common, but the Punto is now very long in the tooth (and feels it) - somehow it feels older than the related Corsa from the same period. The Bravo is a special combination of no particular ability and is also an aging design. Anything else is pretty much excluded by being a depreciation disaster.

Yes.

Don't forget, Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Ferrari, Fiat, Fiat Professional, Jeep, Lancia, Maserati, Ram Trucks, and SRT are all part of the Fiat group now.

Lack of observational skills maybe?

500s and Pandas are everywhere.
Plenty of older Puntos and Sedicis knocking about too.

Don't see many Bravo/Bravas/Stilos these days.
