Report in today's newspaper suggest that the Fiat link may only be related to making available the technology to make smaller cars. No cash, etc.

So, Fiat 500 in the USA becomes a Chrysler 'something' and yet shares a platform with a Ford product.

And I seem to recall thet a few years ago Fiat were snuggled up with GM.

Presumably they may have to make it a 2 seater. 2 versions, on with side by side seats for normal person use and leaving enough room for the shopping and the other with tandem seats to accommodate those with a slightly larger girth.

Alternatively I suppose Obama could just nationalise the lot into a single entity and then shut half the factories using the other half to make windmills.
