    A bloke i used to work with was sales manager for fiat a few years ago. He showed me pics of his white gt he had on demo, it had full leather and air con from the factory.

    He then showed me pics of what happened when it was 3 months old and been borrowed to one of the salesmen. He hit a tree in it seriously injuring his mrs then did a runner. That was a p reg.

    well this seems to change previous theories about UK spec GT's not having the option of air con.

    was this car RHD?

    Air Con is listed for GT's in the big auto data book we use at work, giving us info on how much gas it needs etc.

    he also describes his wheels as chrome though, when they're blatantly not, and look at the shopping list on the back

    HE'S CLEARLY AN IDIOT WHO THINKS AIR CON IS JUST THE STOCK FAN!

    Yes it was a uk spec right hooker.

    He said he was sales manager throughout the time gt's were made and he only ever ordered 2 with air con. His had a sunroof too.
