I take your Fiat Uno and give you the Fiat 126: eek

AKA: The Mały Fiat (that's pronounced 'maowy') - The little Fiat

You find them occasionally in the UK, but if you ever go to Poland you will find they are everywhere.

I think that almost half the cars in Poland are mały Fiat's... and you find them in every colour under the sun, and even souped up versions:

They are one of my lasting memories of Poland (I lived there for a while) was of the lady who sold flowers on the market. When she was done for the day she'd pack all the unsold flowers into her mały Fiat (it was orange), piling them up inside as high as the ceiling, and tying them three pallets deep onto the roof. Then off she'd drive, window rolled down, cigarette in hand, leaving a trail of exhaust fumes, cigarette smoke, and petals behind her.

Whenever I see a mały Fiat, I'm taken right back.
