To my estimate, we have now narrowed it down to about seven thousand three hundred and twelve possible cars.

[pieter]

Oops, that last entry was before I saw the hint about the 1970's
We are now down to about nine hundred possibilities.

Number of cylinders 4 or less?

[Otto Puzzell]

Yes - it has 4!

(5 points remain)

[pieter]

Okay, down to about six hundred...
A Fiat badge?

Yes!

[pieter]

A two seater?

Yes!

My first guess would be a Fiat 124 Spyder, mainly because my brother has one

[@re]

If that's not it, I'll ask if it's the one I own 

[pieter]

Which would have been my second guess

My first guess would be a Fiat 124 Spyder, mainly because my brother has one

Not one of those...

I would say @re beat me to it, but Karn did not respond to his (and my) suggestion of the Fiat X1/9. Is that it?

[Otto Puzzell]

If that's not it, I'll ask if it's the one I own 

Sorry, I missed this post. If you are guessing the blue car in your signature, you are absolutely correct.

[Otto Puzzell]

...a point each to @re and pieter, to avoid any misgivings.

[pieter]

Thanks, but I would not have complained - sometimes you just miss out. hey. That's life.
This was fun; please consider doing it again

[@re]

I agree - pieter deserved a point for narrowing it down so much. I would say that the X1/9 is more of an instantly recognisable classic than the 124 Spyder - but that's just me, and I'm just a bit biased
