Which Fiats have you owned?

Wow I am a chump compared to some of you people. I have just owned one Abart, and now the 500L. Part of me is hoping the Panda can make its way overseas sometime in the future.
 
I only started driving in 2007, and after having a 2001 Daewoo Matiz for my 1st car, I had a 2004 Punto for nearly 4 years, then when it developed a fault that would've been expensive to repair, I traded it in for a 2008 Grande Punto in April this year!! :)

For me it's because I feel most comfortable in a Fiat/Lancia (still waiting to try an Alfa Romeo).
I thought about selling my Bravo and I tried a few other cars (incl. a Renault Megane and a Nissan Note)...I just didn't feel at home in them. I got a sore back in both the Renault and the Nissan, but in any Fiat I can instantly find a good seating position (and I know how everything works, because they rarely change the layout of the cars).

You are in for a treat with Alfa's then. They feel as Itailian as fiats but with a sportier edge and without compromising on comfort. More toys too (not that Fiats are poorly specced to begin with).

I have been eyeing a Giulietta but when I'm ready to skip my Bravo I might go to Germany or Holland and pickup a Lancia Delta 1.9 Twinturbo Multijet.
Mainly because it's a Bravo underneath but with the powerful twinturbo diesel and all the options you can get ;)
 
This is my rouges gallery, I'll try and get them in order :) The list spans 25 years.

Uno 45
Tipo
Uno
Panda 750
Panda 1000
Mk 1 Punto
Cinquecento
Mk 2 Punto Sporting
Stilo
Mk3 punto
Mk 2 punto
500 pop (still have)
Punto Evo (still have)
New panda (still have)

Only strayed from the path twice, Honda Civic and Golf, Both times I was disappointed.

The only lemon in the list was the Stilo. (not only because it was yellow, It just wouldn't stop going wrong. As much as I loved it I got rid before the warranty was up).
 
My 1st Fiat, and my current 1, lol! :)

Since I do not own any of the cars I'm going to write my parents Fiats since I was born.
The first car I remember was a Yugo, not actually a Fiat but it served well.
It got replaced by an metallic red mk1 Punto 55 which was bought brand new.
We drove the mk1 since around 2002 when we got a new mk2 Punto 1.2.
In 2011 it got replaced by a 308 but my father insisted we needed an another car in the household so he got a Polski Fiat 126p.
The 126p got replaced by a 2003 Seicento an year later when I passed my driving test.
Me and my father were not really happy with the Sei so we sold it and bought our current car, a mk2b Punto diesel.
 
First car i bought back in May 1997 was
Fiat 128 4 door 1300CL 1977, then
Panda Fantasia Green 1988,
Seicento sporting yellow, first brand new car in 1999,
then a slight deviation to a Lancia Y10 followed by
Panda 4x4 white 1988,
Cinquecento S, 1994,
then a new Panda 53reg in Guacamole green,
a 56 reg Panda in dark blue,
then an 09reg 500 1.2 pop in white,
a 10reg 500 1.2 pop in white,
and currently have a 12reg 500 1.2 pop in white (anyone spot a pattern emerging here?!). Also currently have a 1995 Panda CLX in dark grey.
I have also strayed to a Smart roadster and Vauxhall Viva in the past, please forgive me!!
