Strada Advert

So of you may remember this, the Built By Robots Advert on TV in 1979:

Can just remember it. I was 7 at the time had one as my first car

seen it before, on TV aswell I swear, maybe a fiat or italian orientated program.

have you seen the 10minute Saab concerto before? There is some pretty hairy driving in that (including wiggling transporters, then two wiggling transporters loaded with saab 9k's, they tipped over one loaded with 9k's in the making too!), I think they ended using about 80 odd cars for it!

remember it well. fiat had large billboards by the road side with the strada picture. but people would add wording to the slogan;-
built by robots, driven by idiots

I think the early strada's look quite a lot like the renault twingo's.

I prefer the later ones before they seized production

Forgotten how 'different' the Mk I Strada/Ritmo looked! Car daint make to many of their owners sing for joy... unless you had just your 130TC tuned and the mack has just handed your keys back

Whats a Strada

Although the adverts not that bad, and their doing a good job with the Grande Punto. Thank christ they didn't do a repeat of the timmy mallett c**p!

A mate of mine had one of those AGES ago. No offence to anyone, but what a *&^! car they truly were.

this from someone who drives a stilo

The Stilo is sort of the great grandchild of the Strada i think:

Strada -> Tipo -> Bravo/a -> Stilo!

Does anyone remember the magazine adverts for the mk2 130TC ABARTH "This is the quickest hatchback in its class!" - or is it just me thats old and remembers that?

Hmmm I was -7 at this time, 'twas just a twinkle in my mothers eye lol
