I agree on the lines of the Volvo 1600 wagon. 👀

The original Avanti is about the only body style that works for it IMHO.

Avanti means forward, ahead, after you

It reminds me about an Italian communist's song you were probably never fortunate to hear: Avanti o popolo, ala risossa, bandiera rossa trionfera.

Ironically both forward looking entities did not withstand the test of time.

 

Avantirossa will be a perfect compliment to this post

@chav If I have it correct (as I usually do, my IQ is 79.5) the translation of Avanti o popolo, ala risossa, bandiera rossa trionfera" from Italian means "Spring little Avanti...don't you know we're gonna shut 'em dooooown."

@john-barry Yes!  They are hoppin' and a' boppin' and they ain't stoppin' til their shoes are floppin'.  Everyone knows the Italians love drag race songs.

I dunno JB.  I think it's easier to march to than dance to.  I'm going to revise your four to a two.

Gosh I don't know about that Pete......87% of Italian soldiers surveyed back in 1943 said that although they enjoyed marching to music initially, the beat eventually got into their boogie shoes.  Refer to pictorial evidence below:

@jack-dodds 

Hmmm.  Upon close inspection of your pics, it's apparent that those Eye-talians are not marching, but they're not dancing either.  I'll split the difference and give it a three.
