Noooo, Italian engines are great, loads of character.
It hasn't got the boxer though, which is what I meant, it's got the 2 litre Twin Spark one apparently, which isn't as good as the 1.7 boxer

Newer Fiats and Alfas are ok, olders ones are just turds waiting for the trailing arms to break or the dash to set fire.

I think they were over compensating for the 'made of crap metal' thing
