General Why is the horn circuit so reliable in Italian cars?

[alexGS]

(amazing why Fiat felt it necissary to fit a horn relay but not fit relays in the headlight circuits eh?)

The horn circuit is wired for maximum reliability. In Rome, it would be a horrible day indeed if your horn stopped working. But no-one will notice your dim headlights, as one's probably smashed and the other wasn't plugged back in after last week's repair anyway.

Off topic is good - especially as we are going over to check if you are telling the truth.

Good stuff!

Keep a tally of cars less than two years old that you see with dents in most of the panels... it appalled me!

I'm sure there's still a number of old 500s parked in the middle of the street with large areas of paint missing and still only mild surface rust...
