Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Fiat is at last launching its revised Florin() high-cube van in the UK—on 9 April at £6,966 (ex-VAT).

The new Fiorino will have the largest load volume in its class at 3.2m3, beating the Vauxhall Combo's 2.72m3 comfortably, and a respectable payload of 545kg (CM 23 Dec 1993-5 Jan 1994). Like Renault's Extra, the Brazilian-made vehicle has the option of a lift-up flap above the rear doors for long loads.

It is initially available with an Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)-equipped 1.7-litre 43kW (57hp) diesel; a catalystequipped 50kW (67hp) 1.4-litre petrol model will become available early next year.

Pricing is keen with the diesel model coming in at just £400 more than its smaller, lighter predecessor—and almost 1800 less than Ford's Courier equivalent. The load flap costs £165.

Fiat's new warranty scheme starts with one year of unlimited-distance "Mastercare" that includes AA roadside assistance, recovery and European cover. Thereafter there is the choice of a further year of unlimited-mileage "Mastercare", or two years' basic mechanical warranty (restricted to 100,000 miles); either option is available at no extra cost.
