CALLING ALL FIAT VIRGINS – THERE ARE 100,000 REASONS TO TRY IT FOR THE FIRST TIME!
Fiat is calling on all Fiat Virgins to buy a Fiat 500, Punto or Ritmo* before the 31 May 2009 and be rewarded with 100,000 Virgin Blue Velocity points.
But that’s not all. All Fiats bought in conjunction with the Virgin Blue Velocity programme will have their carbon dioxide emissions offset during the three year warranty period, fully accredited by Green Fleet, and they will go into a draw to win 25 million Velocity Points – enough to take the lucky winner into outer space!
Even if a Fiat Virgin doesn’t win the trip into space, 100,000 Virgin Velocity Points are enough for a choice of two return tickets from Sydney to Fiji, ten flights from Melbourne to Sydney, two return tickets from Adelaide to Christchurch or a hot couple in Darwin could have enough points to cool off in Hobart. The points can also be used on other airlines, with Emirates to Dubai, V Australia to Los Angeles, Hawaiian Airlines to Honolulu, or, at the other end of the scale, 100 flights from Geraldton to Kalbarri on Skywest! Indeed, the points don’t have to be used on flights, with Virgin Blue Velocity Points available to spend on a wide range of products and services. In fact, if a Fiat Virgin won the 25 million points, instead of going into space, they could buy 14 Fiat 500s!
“This offer is a unique blend of benefits for customers and the environment that could only come from Fiat,” says Andrei Zaitzev, General Manager for Fiat in Australia. “For a start with our partners at Virgin Blue, we are able to offer a benefit at purchase that is considerably more valuable than a conventional discount. Added to this, and as would be expected of a company that for two years now has had the lowest range-wide average CO2 emissions of any car maker, we have combined this with a three year carbon offset programme. Not to mention, as well as no longer being a Fiat Virgin, there’s always that chance a new Fiat owner could also cease being avirgin astronaut, too!”

The vehicle must be purchased in the Velocity member’s name; a maximum of three cars may be purchased per annum, the offer cannot be used in conjunction with other Fiat sales offers.
