Friday 18 September 2009
Fiat 238 was a van produced by the Italian automotive production firm Fiat from 1967 through 1983. The van was introduced in 1967 as the logical continuation of the Fiat 1100T. The 238 was based on the chassis of the Autobianchi Primula. The 238 was produced in many different body styles for utility and personnel transport. In 1974 Fiat introduced a new van, the 242 with a larger petrol engine and also a diesel engine variant. Despite that the sales of Fiat 238 did not weaken and Fiat decided to keep it in its lineup, and made the new bigger engine also available to the 238 model. The 238 was produced until 1983 and was replaced with Ducato.
