    Robert Melting from Trondheim grew up with Fiats, so when he found this one he just had to have it. The last 15 years it has graduatly been restored, and the result is just amazing!

    I remember when these first came out. Loved them then and I still do. Never owned one, but there's still time....

    Beautiful beautiful car. The Italians certainly knew how to design cars back then. I love everything Italian.

      Dieu sait combien les firmes japonaises avaient copié a cette époque sur la technologie de fabrication automobile italienne surtout concernant la suspension arrière des voitures rapides

    What a magnificent engineering. We had the 1980 FIAT 131 CL 1600cc 4 cylinder in line, and the 1965 FIAT 1800b 1800cc 6 cylinder in line. Those two cars made me love Italy 🇮🇹 and respect Italian engineering.

    As a teenager in the 80s , I loved the 2 door 131 supermirafori 2000 TC specially in orange , not scene any model 131 in years wish I'd tried sourcing 1 in the 90s or 2000s when occasionally they popped up for sale.

    I owned one for a short time in NZ in the early 1990s. Possibly my favourite ever car (including the Alfa Giulia QV I just sold). This one looks fabulous. I had to sell mine because of rust, and now I live in Australia, they never had any here, so I have no real way to buy one again.

    A friend of mine had exactly the same car, and I think I drove it the most. What a funny car to drive, but those twin Weber carburetors weren't easy to get right. The main issue with that car, and nearly all cars in the same era. They rustet, as Norway uses too much salt on the roads during winter time. No, I'm looking for a "new" one, and it might be exactly as in the video.

    Ahhh bellissima!! Che ricordi!! My dad bought one, se non mi sbaglio, nel 1981. Mi sembra , se mi ricordo bene, per 6.5 M di (Italian) Lire. He requested it with the bigger than the standard 175 standard wheels it came with the “cerchi in lega” (alloy wheels) with some 205 Pirelli tyres. The stick shift was way shorter than the one in the video - it barely fit in my hand.. I remember 5th gear was “di potenza,” not “di riposo.” I was ten years old, maybe 11. I remember the smell of the all black interiors as if it were yesterday. My gawd, I was the happiest kid on the block for a long time. Altri tempi. Those 115 HP sembravano come 200.

Aqui los venden a "precio de gallina flaca" si ya de por si el mercado de los autos esta bastante decaido por el problema de la gasolina, las motocicletas nuevas son mas caras (por encima de los 700$) que por ejemplo un Toyota Corolla de los 90 (lo he visto en menos de 1000$)
      Y los Fiats y Ladas estan por debajo de los 700, aunque la mayoria no en la mejor de las condiciones. Mi padre tiene un 131 de primera generacion el cual por suerte ha conservado en muy buen estado desde que lo posee hace 20 años

Tmb polacos, españoles obvio y judíos de Europa. Acá aprecian más al motor tipo 1.6 y 1.4 derivado de los 128 tmb diseñado en 1969 x Aurelio Lampredi, q a los "twin cam" como lo llaman a todo doble árbol o eje de levas y q sí tienen mas seguidores en el mundo, especialmente Reino Unido y Rusia, además de Italia misma. España los produjo tmb como SEAT antes de q fuera todo mecánica VW. Excepción del Fiat Uno turbo, justamente muy poco en España (no se produjo ahí el motor 128) pero de gran aceptación y futuro clásico en toda Europa y UK. acá hay versiones "enturbadas" del uno 1.6 8 válvulas carburados e inyectados desde 200 hasta 450 hp.
