The Name Chain - CLOSED

Is that 3 Fiats in a row so not allowed under the rules?  Or is "Fiat Abarth" regarded as a separate marque? (I don't think they were ever called Abarth Fiat..)

Abarth is acknowledged as a stand-alone marque to the best of my knowledge, but usually badged as Fiat Abarth.

I have to agree with Djetset - he's taken less of a liberty than many other posts so far. Fiat Abarth have always IMHO been considered a stand-alone marque, and are usually in car directories as separate.

Yes, I agree.  I think I would have written "Fiat-Abarth" to make it clear!

I was going to include the hyphen ( - ) but I thought one of the more pedantic AP members might protest that there was no hypen in the 850 TC photo I posted!

This thread is getting like that Monty Python sketch where the army officer adjudicated over the skits and stopped them, declaring "this sketch is getting very silly". If we all keep circumnavigating in the present manner the thread could go on for months. I've lost track of the number of time I've located and saved a picture only to find someone else had posted in the meantime. (I had a cracker for Renault, but no doubt someone else would have come up with an Alpine or IKA.)

PS Pedants will claim that it should be Car Systeme with a grave accent over the first "e", but then grave should be spelt with a circumflex, so even this post of mine is not accurate. 

[Djetset]

Ha Ha, by the time I've worked out how to type a grave accent on my keyboard, six more chain links will have been posted!  Anyway...

Mazda 5.

Actually in their own brochures it was usually written as "Car Systeme Style" without any accent.

Hence the two last posts should be "Car Systeme Style JP4" and "Car Systeme Style JP5".

That was me being pedantic.

I'm thinking about changing the fixed comment at the bottom of each of my posts to "Insufferable pedant and proud of it"!
