[Gartzens]

Abarth Alpine??? Alpine is only for the Renault and abarth for the Fiat

[limenr2]

@Gartzens the car is an abarth and the rally is the alpine rally ;) but alpine is also a name of a amazing renault :p

Como le de mi padre perfecto!!!

[steveputter]

Original wheels are a must,for those who are interested there are many different types but this car for gravel it used Cromodora rims,and compomotive have built a special replica available from a company called Group 4 Wheels in the uk,i have also been looking for the tarmac rally split rim with no sucess so far

[Pinin500]

Does need the original Abarth wheels to give the authentic look, sounds good...

Fiat 131 Abarth a legend....

Only the Italians can turn a boxy shape into a desirable jewel...forza Italia

[bstrat904]

@fabilocooo

Its not exactly a replica or imitation. The guy has dressed it up with the Alitalia livery but thrown in the Australian sense of humor by putting Australia there instead.

[citydriver]

@bstrat904 cute dinky little wheels that sit deep in the  wheel flare

[fabiolocooo]

bad imitation!!! is Alitalia no Australia!! blahhh

Best Fiat ever made!

[MaximoSeoane3]

Seat 124 and seat 1430 in all its variations, are the best cars of all time

[DiVlJaKzzzz]

[cookman283]

@DiVlJaKzzzz Australia

[Pinin500]

@MaximoSeoane3 ; Fiat started a car brand for the spanish, called it seat, all

early seats were rebadged fiats before vw bought the brand....

[originaldacc]

i love fiat!!!!

[nidgybaby]

Im almost sure that when the fiat 131 went out of production lada bought the rights to it and started building inferior versions but unlike fiats they were poorly constructed and badly put together and none of them had aberth engines...

[djape1977]

oh boy, are you wrong! lada bought whole factory from fiat way back in 1972, but it was not fiat 131 they made but 124!

[thepcmaster00]

the best rally car!

[nidgybaby]

Yeah you know more than me....But i was sure lada did some kind of deal....i was pretty sure of this....REGARDS Nidge...(SHINE A LIGHT)

[justforever96]

After watching Group B videos all day, this thing looks slow! I know it's not really; a Lancia Delta S4 makes just aboiut anything look slow. Nice looking car though; doesn't really look Italian though.

[petrolhead229]

yea reminds me a lot of the ford escort mkII

[justforever96]

True, it does look like an Escort, only a bit more angular. I still like the Escort better though. Escorts rule! (British Escorts, anyway....screw American crap)

[petrolhead229]

amen to that ma brutha

[skakkos]

My father had it and it was one of the first 76' year models! All silver with black interior and 1.8cc engine! Massive car as I can remember!

I am looking to buy one now, so do you know if I can find one?

[justforever96]

"1.8cc"!? Wow! That must have GREAT fuel economy! LOL. Funny to hear someone call a Fiat "massive", but then again, I'm from America, land of conspicous consumption.

[BarbaShime]

@skakkos

You can find a few on autoscout24 . de ranging from 2,500 €.

[NesteHukka]

It comes quite quickly to find yourself "at home" behind the steering wheel of this car, and after that it is the car of your life.

For fifteen years I have driven Fiat 131. Have tried to get rid of it once or two, but always I get back to it. It just handles so great and has great engine and powertrain.

[Helloween85]

my father got a FIAT 131 in the early 80'

that was a great car!
