Fiat
FIAT 520 (17/50 HP)

2-seater, tourer, coupé, fabric saloon.

First of a complex range of seven-bearing flathead sixes, all with coil ignition. This one just made it to the thirties and has mechanical brakes, a Solex carburettor fed by Autovac, friction dampers, artillery wheels, and the old-school 'Rolls-Royce' radiator inherited from the little 509. Later members of the family are more fun.
