The Bianchina is an Unconventional Choice

Before the summer is completely over, we'd like to take you for a short ride along the Adriatic coast in the town of Rimini, Italy, where Federico Fellini was born. His unpredictable approach to life is something that lives on in the people of Rimini. Annalisa and her car are examples of this. She could have chosen to drive any of the more popular, high-performance cars among the ones that her father had in his collection, but she chose the Bianchina, because is the one that brings smiles to peoples' faces.

Maybe my favorite Petrolicious video. The opening music with this adorable, unconventional, car is perfect. As are the in-car camera views. The lady is charming. Oh to live where you could drive this slug year long with the top down! I am grinning ear to ear watching this.

[@JorgeCanovas]

Her smile is intoxicating! Beautiful!

[@sean8081a]

Agree! I'd rather see her instead of the car.

[@GrotrianSeiler]

Wow. I am smitten. God bless the Italians, for coming up with such a wacky car. Love it.

[@MarkinDC]

Bellisima! Wonderful story, wonderful that this adorable little Bianchina has such an appreciative, loving owner. She enjoys it for all the right reasons. Gracia for posting.

[@roberttollen4599]

I owned the same car same color scheme 50 years ago at age 16. It was $600 back then. I miss that car!

[@beegee22]

She and the car are perfectly matched. Just lovely.

[@FireflyActual]

One of my favourite Italian cars ever. Great work as always!

[@kennethconnors7532]

I had almost this exact car in 1961 ,mine had whitewall tires and was so much fun ,I broke the axle once and lifted the car into my mothers 1958 Cadillac convertible and drove it home. wonderful seeing this, good luck

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

Ciao bella! Those two words suit this nippy little car so much. Adorable, that top design at the back, the colour and the neat style. If I could drive I'd have one, that and a 1950s Ford Edsel. American 50s cars are my faves but this is such a cute car, you can imagine Janet Leigh or Florence Henderson driving this.

[@videotosse]

Real woman, real car, real entusiasm in her own way. Beautiful.

[@PedalForward]

Wonderful video! A lovely car, beautifully photographed - and such a charming owner.

[@Classicviruschannel]

Boys, learn the lesson: women aren't attracted by giant, dramatic, full power and roaring cars, but by little cute things like this. Jay Leno can confirm that.

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

I like the cute little cars and the full on 50s Edsels and Chevrolets, dunno what that makes me!

[@FedericoStivan]

Awesome car! You guys from the channel are so inspiring! Yesterday I started a really unusual restoration of a '66 Ferves Ranger with my grandfather... My passion for classic cars had been growing here on KZbin on channels like yours, Drive and Motortrend. So thank you guys and keep up the good work ;)

[@dariusbrainiac]

well chosen! one of the kind. to this day i didnt even know about it.

[@jayhanneman8962]

this video made me smile the whole time i was watching..

[@_Wiseguy7]

Her father is a brave man for entrusting one of his cars to someone else as a daily driver.Either that or my dad is a very paranoid guy and don't let me drive one of his car.

Autobianchi Bianchina Berlina, with the big folding top, nice. (There was a version in which just the front 1/3 of the roof opened) Can't be too many left, sadly.

Now I see where Nissan got their inspiration while designing the Figaro :) What an awesome car this is. Never heard of it before today! That's one of the great things about this channel.

[@tavshedfjols]

I saw one of these the other day! I had no idea what it was other than it looked small and either French or Italian.

[@pippo19]

Great video!!! Great car!!!!... Petrolicious guys, when we'll gonna see another fascinating car, like Citroen 2CV Charleston? or, better, a Sahara model, I know a mechanic that restored one where i live....

[@eno911s]

I love the suspension on this car. 😉

[@GermanMike89]

Facci un video con tutta la collezione ti prego!

[@silvercastel]

ed Hai scelto bene!

[@davidblalock9945]

I think the reason why we all love "vintage" cars is that all the ones that have survived are the ones made right, and we also know they have little in the way of government mandated crap on them. At the very least, that's what I love about them.

[@67spider1600]

Great video Petrolicious! Do a video on a Duetto!

[@felixmbright]

Love the car, great video, it could only have been better, if there was twice as much time of the young women who was interviewed. She is pretty x 10, and makes the car look better.

[@marts500]

I would marry her in a heartbeat...bella

[@Mart77]

Please, make a movie about her father's car collection. I would love to watch it.

[@D8teen]

Its not suspension you like :P. It happens during gear shifting too.

[@GotWoodChuck]

Actually, a lot of vintage cars that have survived are the ones made wrong, too. The only reason they've survived is that some happened to care enough about them to preserve them or restore them after finding them in bad condition. Even Ford Pintos are becoming collectors items because some people think they're that special.

[@radicaldoasfalto]

Nice pair , ...i mean car , Nice car

[@Heidegaff]

Di certo non mi aspettavo di sentire l'accento anconetano in un video di Petrolicious.

who knows the music at the start? sounds entertainingly italian!

[@desmoGeo]

I learned to drive on this car. .... i was 12 years old ;-)

[@Davidthorough]

All right... I love this car... and I love this woman... BUT!!!... all it is doing it making me aware of how few women are profiled on Petrolicious and in this woman's case... where is her commitment?!? Daddy gave her the car and she doesn't have to worry or make sacrifices to keep the damned thing running!?! Are female car collectors simply non~existent?!? Or can a quality site like Petrolicious dig in on that?!?

[@DoctorZacharySmith]

Patrick Knight Women tend to be more people-oriented by nature while men are more object or "thing" oriented. This is why so many women work in social fields like teacher, nurse, customer service, etc. while so many men work with things (technicians, engineers, scientists, builders, etc.). Besides, women have the power to create life (to give birth) so breathing life into a machine is not as fascinating to them as it is for men. Men cannot give birth so their only opportunity for creation is to make, maintain, and repair machines (e.g. cars or even lifelike robots) and work with objects.

[@ConservativeGangstR]

You need to check out the woman with the insane Porsche Collection. Pretty sure it's Petrolicious

[@maltehannover3537]

@@DoctorZacharySmith Very wrong way of looking on this problem. Women are "not caring" about cars and stuff because men just surpressed them all over. Don't drive a vintage car. Don't be a mechanic. You can't be a good boss. etc., etc.. The talk about their nature or biology is simply wrong and completely refuted.

yea, if this is just one of the cars in her dads collection, have her take you to his garage

[@noscwoh1]

My kinda girl! Cute as a button...and the car ain't bad either. ;)

[@thomasbillamiscool]

Should've taken the Duetto

[@MANPRODUCTIONS2010]

Actually this car can reach up to around 60 mph...there is a little mistake in the tranlsation, she's just saying "it seems you are going really fast, yet you only are doing 30 mph...". But than, it can pull a little more than that. :)
