Fender-coloured Fiats spotters society

Lebarque

Good work, @punchesjudy ! Looks life surf green to me, like this beauty:

@Lebarque Ah Surf green.. I see green and instantly think seafoam. Either way, I like it. The green continued inside on the dashboard.

Not a fiat 500 but I did spot a Porsche 911 in Fiesta Red recently.. Stunning!!

JerkMoans

Oooh oooh oooh may I join in the exciting fun?

Rich pickings whilst taking the Moansenhund for his daily constitutional round the mean streets of Totteridge and Whetstone in the pissing rain yesterday.

First off we had this delightful sea foam green number.

Next a charming sonic blue vehicle jauntily parked in Waitrose car park.

Finally Fiesta red with contrasting leather effect accessories disappearing off down the street.

Top spotting, @JerkMoans ! Your commitment to the cause is admirable. Have a gold star.

 I'd like to point out that officially the Fiat's hsve been Mrs G's.  I just used them to get to your place cos my official vehicle is a push bike and I don't fancy my chances on Grane Rd in the dark.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

If you see a Fiat 500 in a Fender colour, you should run it off the road. It’s what Leo would have wanted.

horrendous cars, flimsy and always in the way, kill it with fire!

The "always in the way" has more to do with the demographic I mentioned than the car itself lol

lol the guitar player in my band actually just got one. Maybe it's teenage girls and guitarists and that's why they use those colours!

I can fit all my gigging stuff in it too, plus a passenger. All without dropping the rear seats.
But it's not mine, honest. (But I've had worse cars).

Saw a Sonic Blue one yesterday, but no photo.  Didn't fancy explaining to my wife that I was taking a photo of a car so I could post it on here.

Crikey, I saw an olympic white one with those stupid "eyelash" things stuck on it...
Can I also raise the stakes a little here....double points for anyone who posts a pic of a fiat and fender together in matching colours...

I'll do that when I get my strat back from @CasperCaster and even leave the car a bit mucky, to match the roadworn strat.

Lol. My son called me 'sad' when I took one the other day.

I was tempted to do this. I have a Danelectro that's very close in colour to the surf green Fiat. I'll look a right tit though holding a guitar up against somebody's car for a picture..

Fantastic idea. Triple points to anyone who gets their Fender refinished to match a car for a photo. Quadruple points for anyone that gets their Fiat resprayed to match a Fender. 

Lebarque

Also, an extra point awarded to @JerkMoans for getting an 'action shot' of that fiesta red affair.

That's why it will be so funny!
