Ah! Memories of my 1964 3.8 E Type coupé in British Racing Green. Made me smile every time I took it out of the garage.

Voitures Anciennes
And so it should. Back in '65 I did consider one myself but thought it was a lot to spend on a car with no 1st gear synchro. I ended up choosing another beast entirely, and had a great deal of fun with it.
On my headstone it will say: Please switch off mobile phones. I'm trying to get some sleep.

A nice 1957 Fiat Multipla.
The Fiat 600 Multipla was a variant of the Fiat 600, which FIAT had introduced in 1955. The Multipla was officially unveiled at the Brussels Motor Show in January 1956. The model was described as an ‘estate car’ (a small monovolume) with four or six seats in two or three rows of two respectively. The rear rows could be folded down to create a large load space measuring 1.75 m.
The Multipla was only about 30 cm longer than the standard 600. The front seats were positioned as far forward as possible so that the driver sat above the front axle. The front doors opened outwards towards the rear – so-called ‘suicide doors’ – whilst the rear doors opened forwards. The 600 Multipla had the same four-cylinder engine as the Fiat 600. The engine was mounted at the rear and the car had rear-wheel drive.The Multipla was produced from 1956 to 1965. A total of 243,000 units were built. Fiat later reused the name Multipla for the 1998 Fiat Multipla.
