From holland with snow

Hello to you all,

thru google I stumbled on to this forum, being the only fiat forum working, or actualy being bussy.
The dutch version of this is just pathetic, with like 5 post over the last year from wich 4 of them are spam topics. :yuck:

So why am I here..
To spread my fiat addiction, becouse the old ball and chain wont understand the love for a car..:bang:

So me:
The name is Marius, I live in Eindhoven in the Netherlands (and no I do not smoke pot all day), and I am a car mechanic. Atleast I studied to be one, I do not work in a car shop any more.
I used to work in a fiat dealer ship near to my houe, until they closed down the shop.

Me first car was a 127, a 1050 with a stunning 50 Bhp..crashed it completly, on my way to a job intervieuw, the one @ the fiat dealer...:)
I had a Uno 75 Sx, a mk I model, 87 to be specific, wicked little car, with an abarth sporting kit on it.

Had tons of cars since, but back to a uno now again, just for getting to work and back (wich is like 2 miles from me home).
It's a selecta now, a mk II model, from 92. Has the 75Bhp 1.5 under the bonnet, and it drives like being pulled by a rubber band..

(klick for a larger pic, and yes it's horrible but it was made with a phone..(n) )

And for the holidays I drive a Ducato, campervan, with a 2.5 diesel engine.

So... that's me... hope to read some good stuf here, and see some great pictures of other peoples cars.
And maybe even help with some technical questions, or learn from the users here.

You worked in a Fiat garage and didn't smoke pot? and in the netherlands as well. Surely a record :p All the mechanics certainly looked stoned last time I had to visit one.
 
well I didn't actualy say I never smoked it..:)

But you know how things go, you get a decent job (read not as a fiat mechanic:chin: ) buy a house, get a dog, and have 2 fiats..
in other words becoming an old decent man..:bang:

As far as amsterdam.. (n) thats my thoughts on that city, to much buildings, people, ****... not my kinda thing
 
Welcome to FF Marius :)

The UK wasn’t lucky enough to get a 1.5 Uno :mad:
