Uncle Topolino

Fillmore: "Hey, Luigi. Which way to the hotel, man?"
Luigi: "What? No friend of mine will stay in a hotel in-a my village. You will stay with my...
Uncle Topolino-o-o-o!"

—Luigi introduces Uncle Topolino to his friends.

Uncle Topolino is a minor character in the 2011 Disney/Pixar animated film, Cars 2.

Personality

Topolino is kind and nice, and loves to help out. This is parodied in the trailer "V12 TV" when he takes the name of "Dr. Fill it Up", a parody of Dr. Phil.

Cars 2

In the small village of Carsoli, near Porto Corsa, Italy, Luigi’s favorite uncle, Uncle Topolino, resides with his beloved wife, Mama Topolino. Uncle Topolino is a 1937 Fiat 500 "Topolino" and the owner of the village’s tire shop, Topolino's Tires, where he taught Luigi and Guido everything they know, though Uncle Topolino is full of sage advice about more than just tires.^[1]

In the movie, he greets Team Lightning McQueen. He then says that he can tell that McQueen is sad, but he states later that Luigi told him. McQueen tells Topolino his problem of being mean to Mater and Mater leaving. He tells McQueen some wise words of wisdom. He tells him that Luigi and Guido used to always fight, but they always resolved their problems. After strolling off with Mama Topolino, he is not seen for the rest of the movie.
