Just spotted this, that’s quite an age. I wonder if there will be any special editions for next year. Something interesting would be nice!

Next year would be the perfect opportunity for them to unveil the successor to the best car they ever made, the Multipla.

Yes, I must agree as the 600 Multipla was the first to be advertised as the "multipurpose vehicle", decades before Japanese manufacturers used the term.

Even the revived Multipla of the early 2000s had that feature with its removable seats etc.

Interesting.

Reminds me of how apparently ''Fiat were making coupes when other manufacturers were struggling to spell the word.''

Now where have I read something like that sentence? confused
