Fiat X1/9 1972-1989
What is your favourite car of all time?
The X 1/9 was the first mid-engined sports-car to sell in large numbers. Announced in 1972, it made competitors like the Triumph Spitfire and MG Midget look obsolete at a stroke. Bertone styled and built the monocoque structure, and the power was by transverse engine/transmission unit mounted behind the two seats. The first models were 1300S, but for 1979 a 1.5-litre was fitted. Production reached approximately 100,000.
