Following up the Chinese 164. Toyota had a problem in France with the MR2 two seat sports model. In French "MR deux" sounds very like "merde" which is french for s**t. Did not do a bundle for sales of MR2's.
On the 164 front, I had a 166, it's newest replacement, a 3 litre V6, 24 valve, 220hp, wondeful, BMW beater, which broke it's clutch after 2500 miles, and went back to the hire company on a breakdown truck. Alfa is owned by FIAT, an acronym which my mechanic reckons stands for Fix It Again Tomorrow. Having said that FIAT also own Ferrari, and no one complains about them.
On a final note, FIAt are virtually bust in Europe, and they look like being taken over by GM. Just think, a GM Ferrari; GM Saabs are bad enough.
