Fiat marketing in the the US has lurched between the sublime and ridiculous (a disastrous tie-up with Jennifer Lopez to promote the 500 saw the rapid departure of Fiat’s US boss) but since then there’s been some good stuff too.

Fiat – Backseat Italians from Tom Banks on Vimeo.
And what happens when someone makes a really funny, brilliant film?
People moan about it of course – in this case claiming it’s being ‘racist’ about Italians – and the company sets about frantically pulling it from the web.
But some Italians are like that – and all the better for it.
Are all clients muppets?
