Fix it Again Tony – a Fun Fiat ad

This is a fun. Fiat making fun of itself using the old “fix it again Tony” jibe.

Did Tony fix it? He sure did!

And the new Fiat 500x, a kind of Fiat 500 on steroids doesn’t look at all bad either. Fiat should sell truckloads of the things. Like the color too.

But first, do watch this “little blue pill” Fiat 500x teaser add which is very good too ( With thanks to Stephen Lusher for drawing it to my attention). You’ll learn how the 500x came to be 😉

Stop reading, start speaking

Stop translating in your head and start speaking Italian for real with the only audio course that prompt you to speak.

While you watch the fix it again Tony video, which is an ad, check out the spectacular espresso machine in the background too:

Nope, Fiat has not paid Italy Chronicles to run this, in case you were wondering.

Marvellous Milan

The weekend before last, while I was home alone dog sitting, a friend of mine came up from Genova. He stayed for a couple of days, and while he was here we went for a bit of a wander down towards Milan’s impressive castle. I surprise awaited us.
