You might wonder why two cars are shown above in almost the same position. The first is the reason, that the version 1 is from the period between 1934 and 1938 and the version 2 was created earlier, mainly to be seen in the bigger headlamps. But there are many more differences that not much have to do with changes in the series. Thus, the fenders differ significantly. This has to do with the tendency of the vehicle owners to achieve the lowest possible weight.
The Balilla Sport is also (successfully) used in racing. It does have a trunk and a hood for need, but for ordinary travels it seems yet not to be created. Although suspension and steering are well adjusted to it. Its reliability even at high speed also would it allow. But with rain still wet feet are almost unavoidable. So it remains a relatively cheap car, one can easily drive fast and Fiat even then closes a market gap and now holding for a long time.
