Mi.To?

So is it:

Me Too,

My Too,

My Toe

or

Me Toe ?

Me Toh.

My guess is 'Me Toe' with emphasis on the Toe. It'll get called 'mitto' in England, especially by the people that call the Ford Ka the Ford Kay-ay.

You don't need to guess Pud, just read my post

Ta BF.

So Junior becomes Me Toe, 149 - Me Foot, 159 - Me Leg, 169 - Me Torso, Brera - Me Leggo, Spider - Me Leggover!

Perhaps if they'd called it the To.Mi we could have had an opera about it...

Silly name has served the marketing needs so far as I'm writing about it! Do I want to be seen in one though? I'm reserving judgement until I see it in the metal and see if the door catches the wing and the hatch catches on the roof etc like my GT...

PS, found a German company tuning the Abarth GP with the 155hp engine.... I'm sure they can do the same with the Mito when it's out.

The name is utter bobbins. Especially for the UK and other places which attempt to speak English (like London). Why couldn't they just call it something like Sprint or Monza?


Customer: "I really like the new Alfa"
Dealer: "Me too?"
Customer: "So you should, you're selling them"
Dealer: "No, My Toe - that's what it's called".
Customer: "Oh sorry mate, didn't see your foot there".
Dealer: "No, that's it's name. Mi tea".
Customer: "Please. Milk and one sugar".

It'l sound just fine oop north,,as in "It fell on me toe"

MI.To Sounds a bit odd to me..but I suppose I'l get used to it..maybe.

Now if they had called it "Mythos"..thats my favourite Greek beer

Was that written by Barker & corbet?

I don't get the negative moaning about the name.

Cagiva made a 125cc GP replica motorbike called the Mito and the 17-18 year old plebian yoofs who bought it managed to say "Mito" (pr. "Mee-Toh" according to the Younger Mrs S.) without any problems, stoopid jokes, forced pronounciations or whinging that (in whiney voice) "the Brits can't say it".

Don't be so immature people.. The Brits WILL be able to pronounce it and they won't want their (first?) Italian car to be called an "English" name.

"Mi" as in "Milano" (Not Milan-oh.. but rather the Italian pronounciation "Mee-lah-no")
"To" as in "Torino" (Who says "Toe-rino..? It's "To" as in "Top", so "Toh-Ree-No" ...any fule noe.)

Let's just get on with it fellas.. we should be the people who struggle the least with this..


Ralf S.

sounds Japaneese to mi!

A ridiculous name for a great looking car. Total bonkers.

Mi.To = Milano.Torino
Designed by Milano, build in Torino

Yes, I think we understood that.By the same token, is there an Audi Ingolstadt? Or a BMW Munchen? Definitely a car to be 'debadged' on purchase.

It just sounds so clichéd. Give the car some 'funky' sounding abreviation, the youth will lap it up!!!!

No class, no soul. It is the opposite of everything Alfa Romeo should be.

Mi To,Ayeeyah! So! i10, Hyundai, bigger number Oh Ko!

I don't know. It sounds ok to me. Mito like myth in Italian isn't it? Mi.To because it's Milano-Torino. Doesn't sound worse than Duetto. Although that was a better looking car.

There's a chuckle brothers sketch in there somewhere, "too me, too you, and back again" (naa, maybe not). Nice looking car, why didn't they just call it Sud or Junior or something equally as small and Alfaish?

At least Duetto is an actual word.
