You know its a good car when the 0-60 is measured in minutes
💀
and you probably mean 0-60 kph and not mph. Lol!
"Yeah dude, I was pulling 150 on the freeway today, even got pulled over for dangerous driving, it was nuts!"
"Kph?"
"Nah, meters per minute."
thats how the best cars are
@@cybersilver5816
150 meter per minute is ~9 KMH, they would have a problem with that, but it would be because you are going too slow to use the freeway
my dad's first big highway drive was in one of these, back in the day when eastern european highways were made out of panels of concrete. there were five guys crammed in this beast, and the distance between the wheels was exactly the same as the length of the concrete panels. when recounting this tale, my dad always ends it with "upon arrival, our balls were thoroughly tenderized by the sweet marriage between soviet infrastructure and polish engineering"
The best combination for road trip stories!

I'm from Poland, home of this beauty. I remember when I was around 16 and riding my 50 cc, two-stroke engine beast of the scooter. I saw one of this creates, driving around 40-45 km/h in my home town. I was doing around 50. My scooter could go only up to 70 km/h but still, I was going faster. I started to overtake.
When a guy behind the wheel saw me in his window, he floored it.
I thought to myself: Now you're starting to accelerate. When I'm overtaking you? No freaking way! So, I want for it. It was slowest race of my life. We both did out best. I could see it in his eyes.
I was faster.
LMFAO
this is the comment of all time
Lol best comment
You know its a good car when a scooter can overtake it
This sounds like a story Wade would use to test the mic on a nugget lmao
"That doesn't sound good" is just how you can describe anything when it comes to a Maluch. But there's still something heartwarming when you randomly see one on the street and are left wondering what exactly is it running on - original parts? New parts? A jug of cooking oil and a piece of wood? Two hamsters? You'll never know.

@@Mothyave they'd hit their knees on the roof if they tried
To give you guys an insight of what this car was to polish people back in the 70s and 80s, it was everything. Basically if you were able to get one (because it wasn't just money that could buy this little car - you needed permission, a special bonus for example from your workplace) you were the luckiest one in your neighbourhood. So, because it was the only car available, it would be a family car for most. I know many stories of people driving this car for their vacation, 5 people in the car with luggage on top of the roof. Many drove it from Poland to Bulgaria, Jugoslavia, Hungary (we're talking 1000+ km). What's funniest, the car was really unreliable, so people used to tell jokes and anecdotes about it. One goes: "I was driving through Hungary in my Fiat, and I saw another one with polish registrations on the side of the road, with a man repairing something in the engine. So I stopped and asked the guy what had happened and if he needed any help or spare parts. He answered: 'Oh don't worry it's nothing serious, just head gasket', I am nearly done " Probably the story is real, because polish drivers would always carry lots of spare parts and all the necessary tools, just to quickly repair the car if something happened.
It was easy to repair, but it was almost certain you gonna break down on a long summer roadtrip to a different country. Being a driver back then was synanomous with being a hobby mechanic.
8:10 I like how the camera matches the wheel of the van makes it look like Tony is an absolute snail barely overtaking a stationary van

It's always heartwarming to see an animal rehabilitated and running with its brethren in its natural habitat again
In Silesian University of Technology there is a mad lad of doctor (he teaches welding technology there) that decided around year 2000 to put in his Niki handmade, done by himself, TITANIUM valves, modify his pistons and cylinders to be as light, durable and accurately made as possible and tune it to perfection. That Niki was freakin' able to achieve 200 km/h XD He told us this story during classes about welding exotic materials. When he sold this car, the new owner had it in one piece only for a week. It had crashed on a tree, because this car had STOCK wheels and suspention, and after hitting conciderable amount of speed he did not like to take turns at all XD
@El Cactuar thank you for comment :D I taught, that "kph" means just "kilometers per hour". It should have been kmph or km/h. As you can see, I am not perfect english speaker - I was wrong. I've edited my comment, thanks for sugestion :D
@@danielmichalski94kph is actually correct Kilometers Per Hour, it is widely used
@@steelfox1448 yes, now I know that now :D As a little adnotation, km/h is also correct, because this is basically k - kilo, m - meter, / - divided by, h - hour xD Kilometers per hour xD
That engine is probably the most valuable thing in that whole car.
My dad has this very same car, he drove it on the german highway for 3 hours over 100 km/h
The scariest drive he's ever done
what a brave man
autobahn with a fiat niki is like running through the hood with a blue and red bandana on
Dude I drove the car a few times now and it's the sketchiest car I've ever driven, the steering wheel is uneven and you constantly have to correct the wheel in order to drive straight. Also at higher speed it misfires which is hilarious. And yes, it does get hot and it's loud as he'll inside. But I love it. One of the most authentic driving experiences I ever had
tony can go faster than is allowed on parts of the autobahn that don't have speed limits
lol because he was the slowest car on them? :D

Kph= Kilometers per hour. How hard is that to grasp??
Only South Aussies know how much of an achievement that hill is in Tony. Tony deserves an award honestly.
There are big hills everywhere, mate. Here in W.A. we have the Darling Escarpment, which provides us with Greenmount Hill and Red Hill, both of which have a major freight route up/down them, the Great Eastern Highway goes up Greenmount, and Toodyay Road goes up Red hill.
Either road is an excellent way to check your ignition timing on a hot Summers day, by driving up them and listening carefully for pre-ignition (pinging).
Amen. My Magna barely gets up there haha
As a fellow south Aussie, my 626 struggles with that same hill.
I'm not from SA, but would that be the A15? I found the Roundy Raisin so I assume a bit to the north of that is The Hill. If that's it, that looks pretty rough. We have one highway here in Canberra that is similar but doesn't seem quite as extreme, and my old Pulsie with worn rings could barely do that. I think it'd just throw in the towel if it saw that bad boy.
I love how the starter fluid is literally called "Start Ya Bastard"
I really like watching Wade and James just be bros together. Both of them giving a little cheer when Tony hits 100kph made me smile
In poland we used these to drive across the country, about 800km, sometimes in 35C heat. As long as you have a 10mm socket, a flathead screwdriver and a piece of string to hold the engine hatch slightly ajar, it makes the trip no problem.
Preferably with roofrack loaded with suitcases :).
For me, bring additional towel and a bunch of spare clothes (1948 Jeep Willys with leaky soft top)
It isn't a matter of can or can't, it's a matter of how long do you have?
stocking pfp
Honestly would consider an engine hatch delete if I was in that position
The way he talks about Tony like a proud father really adds to the motivation
As a long time owner of two of them i can confirm it can go 100kmph, it takes some time but it can reach it. Also judging by the logo on steering wheel it came from factory that my dad use to work at.
completely unrelated to anything but also thank you for including Tony at full revs on the hill as a constant sound because my audio was being funky and it was a perfect test for what I needed.
Anywho love ya, Dank
I'm rebuilding my own 1990s nugget, and seeing your videos always inspires me to continue. Thanks!
You too can struggle to reach 100kmph! Huzzah!
9 liters per 100km is roughly equivalent to 25 miles per gallon in freedom measurements. Considering most American freedom trucks run around 12-15mpg (or 18 liters per 100km), I’d say Tony is doing alright.
You have to compare within its own weight class though.

These videos remind me of my 1991 Acura Legend and how me and my dad could always send it somewhere to get it properly fixed, but we just order cheap parts and fix it ourselves. A couple years ago it got in a minor car crash. We just brought it home, straightened out the frame by hand and threw in a new radiator. Runs as well as it looks, and it looks gorgeous.
I love old engines. They rev limit themselves by floating valves and they prevent you from exceeding cylinder pressure and cooling limits by detonating. They'll do it all day long and might only start leaking when they're up to temperature, prompting you to always change the oil by topping off continually. Wonderful stuff.
Haha yeah they’ll detonate all they want till they have one big detonation and bend a rod
a bit serious question, does valve float happen because of the weak spring used in older cars or just aged springs or something else?

Achievement unlocked:
Officially An Car
With good carb tuning, proper ignition timing, good oil and everything, 126p is capable on cruising in 100-110 km/h easily, and 120-123 km/h top speed - at least the 650cc. The 600cc is just a tiny little bit slower, but has far better fuel economy. This was our family car for over 15 years, and we drove cross-continent drives in Europe.
Had an old '99 Hilux with a 3.0 N/A Diesel. Pretty sure the engine had serious issues (ended in a scrapyard after a year due to total engine failure) but that did 0-100 in 47s which is close to Tony's. Woulda loved a drag race. And yes, trucks and buses beat me going up hills.
Those 5L engines are pretty durable, I'm surprised you managed to blow it up...
My grandpa has a 2.5L N/A (2L-II) with a 5 speed manual and it goes 0-100 in about 20 seconds, and that car has like 450k on the odometer.

@D for all of us mate. Portugal here on the other stretch of the world is suffering the same situation. Living cost has raised 400% in the last 20 years, pachecks have barely raised 50%. Nowadays, it is actually impossible (not difficult, impossible) to live by yourself. You either go share a house with strangers and live in a literal room as a grown, working adult, or you live with your parents. The AVERAGE rent is almost as high as the average salary. It's fucking absurd.
@D I myself have to get a driver's license for heavy vehicles and specific training for carrying hazardous materials in order to get a proper paying job, which by themselves is already obscenely expensive. Just so you can understand how ridiculous it is, our average pay is around 800-850 euro after tax, meanwhile I don't remember the last time I saw a decent, clean house for less than 700 euro. Keep in mind this is not counting basic survival needs such as food, energy and clothing. Keep also in mind that we have Europe's most expensive electricity, and one of the world's highest gas prices. It's gotten so stupid, so obscenely imbalanced that Lisbon was recently considered the third most expensive place IN THE WORLD to live in, relative to it's citizens' earnings. I genuinely can't wait for the day the riots break out.
I had a mid 80's Opel Corsa nugget sedan some years back, and the struggles Tony had with getting up hills at any speed other than "meh" gave me some fond an car flashbacks. Man I miss that nugget, the old Maluch makes it seem like a Maybach in my memories.
Oh god I once drove a 1996 fiat cinquecento. THAT was fun. 39 hp, four cylinders... When I sat in it alone, I could slowly but surely press it to about 135ph, but that was it. It's the direct predecessor to the FIAT 126, the Niki :)

@@darek4488yeah but everyone hates fast lane campers anyways
@@jamiejam9976 There is absolutely nothing being done to deal with the left lane lounging in USA. Even trucks do it.
Here in Poland the hierarchy of speed was always there, but to expand on that, in 2023 a new law was made and now the semi-trucks are not allowed to overtake unless there is a great amount of speed between them. And since the semis are all capped to a similar speed now they just keep right and it sometimes looks like a road train. It greatly helps when going above 160 km/h in a car, because there is way less situations when you need to slam on the brakes to suddenly match 88-92 km/h the trucks are doing.

Until last year I drove an Opel Corsa from 1995. It was the basic variant with no extras, no power steering and just 45Horsepower. On Autobahn 6 between Ansbach and Aurach there is a pretty steep stretch of road downhill and one day I was pushing my poor Corsa to the limit. Tachometer showed 185Km/h, but I am pretty sure it showed about 15-20Km/h too fast. That car was a bucket, but it never left me stranded. Man, I loved that car. Had to sell it for 150€ because it wouldn't pass inspection without spending a huge amount of money for fixing it up.
I have a 1979 datsun truck, and I gotta say, driving on the freeway for that long is insane, you're an absolute legend, dank.

There is a video of a 1988 126p 650E being pushed on a Polish freeway to over 140km/h. Yes, it can do that. Somehow. :D
As a southern Adelaide boy it's warms the heart knowing you ventured out to my neck of the woods.
Yes the southbound Southern expressway hill is a bastard, my old Pajero hated that hill with a passion and could only sit on 60km/h going up, at least its both ways now and not gambling on whether its going your way at the right time.
The Polish guy I worked with said, whilst the communists were pricks, one good thing was you could use public transport to go from one side of the country to the other for stuff-all cost. Hence the muted imperative to engineer a decent car. Great video, BTW. Reminds me of a mate's Austin Tasman that could only do 90.
That end bit where the fuel economy was calculated had me dying lmao!
he went from being so excited to so angry and it's practically the same expression
8:20 this made me have way too much feelings for some crappy car at the other side of the world.
very happy that tony get's to see the world again in his old days.
my wife and her parents used to drive such a Fiat on holidays and kayaking. In the 80's they dismantled the rear seats and they fit inside - two adults, two folding kayaks, a tent and a teenage child.
One of my favorite things about these videos is the vintage music that you put in the background
Really adds to the goofiness of it all 😂
“WE’RE A CAR!!!” I’m so proud of Tony ❤️ 🚗
Not one, but two overtakes! What a Nugget! Truly it is "an car". I love these Niki videos, and anything else car related. Keep `em coming!
It's "Maluch" on a modern left hand traffic highway, haha! Nice. These cars were the mainstay of Polish motorized traffic in 70s through 90s.
Good to see that the most entertaining Adelaide youtuber's content is driving an absolute beast of a car out of the city. Kudos!
