General Part number availability

[Ralf S.]

Has anyone ever gone into their local friendly Fiat dealer and tried to order a 92571822?

Are they still available...?

I should add that I don't actually neeeeeed a whole Stilo bodyshell... but I quite like the idea of going in to the dealer when they're especially busy... and ordering one.

Interesting that ePer only shows one bodyshell for RHD without a sunroof.. there's no separate number for a 3dr and a 5dr.... confused

This was the status as of: 31/07/2012

Generally speaking complete body shells are not available a short time after production ceases due to space storage constraints. During production there may be a one or two shells "ready for dispatch" that get replaced from the production line (at a convenient time).

I remember back in 1989 (just after production came to an end) I asked about getting a Strada Mk III body shell and they were available "whilst stocks last". Was advised that complete shells don't come under the normal 10 year spare parts availability EU guidelines. Mind you many Strada Abarth parts were unavailable a few months after production ended (from factory/Warrington) and parts had to be sourced via dealer stock.

Just read through this thread and found it amusing that they list the weight in Gramms
