Fiat Multipla in Klang

The Fiat Multipla JTD ... spotted in Klang!


Truly a unique car ... seats 3 up front, 3 in the back = 6 seater. With its strange bug-eyes, it certainly draws stares!!

Wikipedia ... The exterior and interior design of the Multipla was quite extraordinary. Nonetheless, the Multipla was displayed at the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York during its "Different Roads - Automobiles for the Next Century" exhibition in 1999.
Multipla sales began in Italy late in 1998 but most other markets had to wait a year before receiving imports.
The power of the Fiat badge meant that the Multipla was an instant hit with Italian buyers, but its styling meant that sales elsewhere were less successful. This ultimately led to the car being voted 'Ugliest Car' in the Top Gear awards 1999. Also when Simon Cowell (American Idol 'nice guy'!) went on Top Gear, he was shown a picture of the car and said it had a disease.
