FIAT 8V

2-seater coupè.

Running against the Fiat utility grain, this one was a true beauty with a one-off V8 engine producing 105bhp (latterly 115bhp and 127bhp), and giving a top speed of 110mph and upwards. All-round independent suspension and a tubular chassis were used, but Fiat never really marketed it properly, and 56 of the Fiat V8-engined cars made came from the Siata works.
