If MooseMountain, the initiator of this topic, has a chassis number on his 4/4 beginning with the letter F then is indeed a Fiat engined car. However those cars were produced between 1981 to 1985. At that time MMC offered the option of either the Fiat 1600 Twin Cam, an engine that was fitted in the Fiat Argenta which MMC imported through Iveco, the commercial side of the Fiat company, or the Ford CVH engine. Because the 4/4's fitted with the Fiat engines was several hundred pound more than the 4/4's with the CVH engines sales were poor and consequently only 92 to 96 were sold, a number in excess of 14 quoted by MooseMountain. But I have heard tale that towards the end of Twin Cam production run they used a small quantity of 2 litre naturally aspirated engines in cars badged 4/4 which was prior to the re-introduction of the Plus 4 with the Fiat 2 litre fuel injected engine
