If I win (ha ha Daydreaming) I intend to PX on another car.
�8700 on the road - all taxes and another �200 = �7k ish.
Should be a good deposit :-)

| Maybe its.... Slowness Expected Ancient Technology....
But that maybe slightly unkind... but nearly as unkind as my first
thoughts, which cannot be posted in a public conference... 8*)

Since when has Spain been in South East Asia?
Perhaps it stands for Spaniards Extend Automotive Technology (sort of
Vorsprung Durch National Socialism for Spaniards), since they are now
part of the VW group, well known for overpriced jalopies.

| .1 might have given us the 3 alternatives - it probably only needs 'O'
level Spanish to arrive at the answer.
.1 could be a customer - here is a problem, no I shan't tell you
everything you could know, work it out from first principles.

Spanish Engines and Technology - but they use System Porsche engines.
Sociedad Espa�ola de Automoviles de Turismo - a GT SEAT? no way.
Sociedad Espa�ola de Aeronautica y Transporte - SEAT 'planes?
Apply first principles here or "vote for Joe"?

What does FIAT stand for? I'd guess, given SEAT's history, that the
name is very similar. (At a guess, I go for the second).

| FIAT is Fabriqua Italiana Automobili Turino (or something very
close).
Ian (who doesn't have any level Italian).

1061.12 | Oh well, it was a good idea! | NEWOA::SAXBY | Vote for Perot : He's got $3B! | Mon Jun 08 1992 15:13 | 4 |

Rather shoots my theory down in flames then! :^)

Can anyone tell me what the SEAT Ibiza Diesel is like (1990) and

Thanks in advance,
