Quite possibly but it's mighty impressive on the go, nothing like a 4 wheel drive drifting in race mode

Well if you're ever up in that area again, let me know. Perhaps we can meet up and I can drool over your car....

I will not speak on that

Welcome Fab I can not count how many times I went over the Brenner to Trento and Bozen with my Buddy back in my full Hair Days. Holidays in Italy taking the Hippy Cruiser RV to the beaches in Italy and my Buddy driving for FERCAM out of Bozen. Love Italy.

Buongiorno Fabrizio!

I just joined the forum yesterday and have yet to set my profile. Still, your post brought back memories of being in Northern Italy last September. While there, we rented a Fiat 500 (diesel) for our time in Tuscany, which was a tremendously good decision. We returned assuming we'd get an Abarth or a Mini. We ended up going the F56 route (in the past month) which, in the end, was a pretty obvious choice for us (I had a 2004 MC, which I loved); a decision made easier as I have two friends with Abarths, so I can car swap whenever I want.

About your Italian Mini obsession... I saw few (none?) on our trip. How popular is the car in Italy? I would love to magically transport my MCS to Tuscany!
