Thanks Karthik, but I do not think ' is a valid character in an email id, so I am using marius.dlima@fiat.com.

Sreenivas,

The mail ID that I gave is fine and it is with the ' in it.

Regards,
Karthik.

Interesting, yahoo does not accept it as a valid email id. So I sent it without the ' character and the mail has not bounced so far..

sorry about going off topic guys.

I think Amit is right about the availabilty of Fiat spares. An year ago, i had a problem with the brake oil cyclinder (shares with the clutch too). There was a leakage and it was completely drained out when i left the car in service center for more than 10 days for a denting job. The service guys asked me to wait for another week to get the spare part. I gave them an ultimatum till evening. I got a call with in two hours that the part was replaced.

Long live Fiat....

i don't understand the big deal abt spare parts (specially for mumbaiites). i have a 7-yr old Matiz, and i have never come across a spare part that is not available at opera house. and generally it is at a fraction of the cost at dealership. i guess, people are simply used to getting their car serviced from dealerships that they do not know the outside world. that's why fiat's poor 'a s s' is not such a -ve thing for me.

Exactly my thoughts Minardi. Genuine spares are available outright in Opera house in factory packed boxes and at a cheaper rate too! I have seen loads of Fiat spares available. You need to ensure that you go to the right place to pick these.

When they are going to launch the palio...
Budget is out and they can now decide the price and launch the vehicle...

No point asking that question. I have given up hopes now.

Fiat - this one is for you

*yet another big boring stretched yawn....* Saw 2 more white ones on the way to office. Looks like they want to increase their road presence. This way, Fiat will create more prototype cars than production ones.

Folks,

Suggest the mods to close this thread LOL....
