Again, we ask you to send your best picture of a Fiat 500, Fiat 126 or Fiat 600.
For details please see here.

Beside that we update you on Gianluca’s journey, which now, due to visa problems and the tense situation in the Middle East, goes to West Sahara. Read more…

Furthermore we’d like to introduce the first “Fiat of the Month”, present the recent winners of the 25% Jubilee Discount and many interesting offers, new articles and news concerning the Fiat 500, the Fiat 126 and the Fiat 600.

Gianluca is on the road, but unfortunately not to Teheran!

With our last newsletter we informed you about Gianluca’s journey to Teheran and that we support him once more. Unfortunately there were problems to get the visa caused by the forthcoming election of the Iranian President. Due to that, and due to the tense situation in Turkey, Syria and other nations in the Middle East, we was forced to go plan B.

At the moment he is driving through western Morocco, his next destination is the turn-around point in Dakhla, Western Sahara. Since his start of the journey on May 17th he drove more than 4000km, passing southern France and Spain and took the ferry boat from Almeria to Africa.

The extreme heat in the Moroccan Desert with more than 37 deg. Celsius not only boils the driver, the little Fiat 500 suffers as well. Every 80km Gianluca has to stop to let the engine cool down. Every now and then he gets offers to sell his car when passing small villages. A camel, a dromedary or a motorcycle was offered, but of course he sticks with his little Cinquecento.

All news on Gianluca’s tour, his adventures, pictures and videos can be seen here.
