1980 Fiat 131 Brochure
By 1980, the 131 occupied a peculiar middle ground between the nimble Golf and the more spacious Passat. Fiat's four-cylinder engine—either the 1.3-litre unit producing 63 hp or the 1.6-litre good for 75 hp—offered straightforward efficiency rather than performance fireworks. The Dutch and German markets received identical specification, making this an unusually unified Europea
1983 Fiat 131 Brochure
By 1983, the 131 faced mounting pressure from newer competitors like the Golf and Escort, yet Fiat positioned it as the practical family choice for cost-conscious buyers. Available as saloon or estate, with engine options ranging from a 1.3-litre unit producing 63 hp through to the 1.6-litre delivering 85 hp, the 131 offered straightforward appeal in markets where simplicity an
1975 Fiat 131 Mirafiori Brochure
By 1975, Fiat's lineup needed a proper family saloon to compete with the Opel Ascona and Renault 12, and the Mirafiori arrived to fill that gap. The 1.3-litre engine produced 86 horsepower, enough for steady motorway cruising without extravagance. Italian buyers found it practical, affordable, and honest—exactly what the market demanded as fuel prices climbed.
1978 Fiat 131 Racing Brochure
By 1978, the 131 Racing faced stiff competition from the Golf GTI and the Kadett GT, yet Fiat's entry held its ground with a 2.0-litre engine producing 130 horsepower and a nimble five-speed gearbox. Buyers valued its sharp steering response and relatively affordable price tag in the hot-hatch segment. The Racing trim offered genuine performance without the premium badge tax th
1980 Fiat Mirafiori Brochure
As buyers in 1980 weighed the Mirafiori against the emerging front-drive Golf and Passat, Fiat's saloon offered something different: a conventional rear-wheel-drive layout, a 1.3-litre engine producing 65 bhp, and straightforward British market positioning. It was practical, affordable transport for families unwilling to chase the latest trends.
1984 Fiat SuperBrava 2000 Brochure
By 1984, the SuperBrava 2000 reached Australian dealers as a four-cylinder alternative in a segment where Japanese efficiency and German engineering dominated. Fiat positioned it as the value-conscious choice: 105 horsepower from a 2.0-litre engine, front-wheel drive, and a price point that undercut established competitors. Left-hand-drive configuration arrived first; RHD marke
