FIAT 1400

Saloon, cabriolet.

Fiat's 'Standard Vanguard', incredibly oversquare and also incredibly overgeared, thus acceleration negligible. A full six seater and very tough. Rare in Britain, where it didn't appear till '54: cabriolets and diesel version ('53 on) not sold here. Later cars with wrap-around rear windows.
