Meet my favourite Fiat Linea 1.4 FIRE Emotion Pack Fox Trote Azure. I bought her on 8 October 2009 from Concorde Motors, Hosur Road, Bangalore. She has run 6700 km in 8 months.

Actually, I did not pamper my Fiat Linea with any accessories as it is fully loaded with features. So, I bought MapMyIndia Lx130 navigator in November 2009 and Fiat Blue&Me Media Player Adaptor from ebay.co.uk recently.

Now, we are enjoying uninterrupted songs and music from my son/daughter's iPods especially during long trips. Some more accessories are in pipeline. I shall post the details after their receipt and review.[:)]

Already, my Fiat Linea has visited places like Mysore, Chennai, Pondicherry, Goa, Mahabaleshwar, Mumbai and Pune. Many more trips are on anvil.

Actually, I must confess this post is the proverbial tip of an iceberg - more posts will follow.

Finally. Just what I was looking for - An ownership review of Fiat Linea. You own a beautiful car J.Ravi and Fox Trot Azure is a nice color but not a common sight yet. Please share lots of pictures and a detailed review, including the positives and negatives which have discovered in the 8 months ownership of Linea. I'm all on this thread.

Drive Safe,

Blue&Me Media Player adapter helps me connect our iPod/iPhone with the Blue&Me in my Fiat Linea so that we can listen to the music/song/receive/make calls hands-free. For other pen-drives or other mobile phones, this adapter is not required.
Thanks for such a speedy review! The Linea is definitely one helluva car!
Thanks, *Arkin_Young*, for the compliments.
I heard that 1.4 FIRE is really a powerful engine! What is the Fuel economy you are getting ?
Here are the vital statistics for my Fiat Linea [Petrol]:
Bangalore city driving: 11.6 kmpl [5 occupants+ACC]
Bangalore FE.JPG
Highway driving: 23.3 kmpl [sedate driving at 70 kmph on NH 46 + 5 occupants + ACC]
Bangalore Chennai FE 002.JPG
FE I got during my Pune - Bangalore trip in March 2010: 12.4 kmpl [100 to 160 kmph speed on NH 4 + 4 occupants + ACC]

Blue&Me is a standard feature in Emotion Pack of Fiat Linea. This adaptor is required only for connecting iPods/iPhones with Blue&Me. For other USB storage devices and mobile phones, this adaptor is not required. Once paired, it connects automatically through Bluetooth.

Bluetooth connectivity is know as Blue&Me in Fiat Linea, a standard feature in Emotion Pack model. Our Nokia mobile phones do not require this adapter.

Thanks, 350Z, for kind words. Sure. More details/photographs are in queue!
Hey J.Ravi that is one hell of a car you own, just love it for its looks!
Thanks a lot, cooldhaya, for compliments.
