Very interesting about the Fiat 500 90 Dreamer.
The Panda is also a Fiat 500 chassis as well. Thats understandable but I wonder how the Ford / Fiat tie up happened?? |

Same way the newest Transporter / Transit mess occurred (also included many other VW / Ford x-over commercials)
All about $$$$ |

Is there tie up there as well between the Transit and Transporter??
Makes sense to keep costs down. |

VW and FORD have agreed a partnership on their newest commercials so includes vans / pick-ups / small vans / etc
Just means its an easy swerve to avoid the worst of everything by not buying either  |

X-over / shared platforms go back years…..think it was the Volvo 340 that shared an Italian chassis and the likes of the Rover 200’s were part Honda
Lots of earlier 90’s ish Mazda / Ford / Volvo shared engines & chassis due to all being owned by FORD Sure there are many (many) more…. |

Volvo 340/360 originally came from DAF. My Dad had one and I seemed to recall there was a Renault tie up there somewhere, but I might have been mistaken?

Hi I saw this one yesterday near Simonsbath, a bit of a strange result when I did an mot history check on it as in colour Beige which it definitely isn’t also quite a surprise mileage, it certainly doesn’t look like a car that’s been parked up for 12 years also the splashes of mud and water up the side look very recent, it wasn’t there last Monday
