I hope my orange Fiat 126 is worth the same ;)

it didnt have it very long then.

Wasn't long ago someone posted on here that he'd bought it.

I think he bought it back in about March time. Do people really think it was worth that much? Personally, I'd put some proper age related plates on it before I could do anything else with it!

 Here is the original thread.

 It sold for £9.900 earlier this year.

 Seems he only buys the cars to make some quick profit. Also according to the auction results half his cars failed to sell. Poor Chris Evans.

ugh putting Abarth stickers on a fiat doesn't make it Abarth! that's so tacky. Might as well put a cosworth badge on it.

how can it be a 'replica' when there weren't any to begin with

HATE Chris Evans ever since I heard he painted all his Ferraris to match his garage?????!
he should paint his garage to match the cars, they're usually red for god's sake!

Totally agree  ;)

You can call a 126 "replica" only if you upgrade the engine to 695 SS with all the "original" parts in it.

Also a 9K cash Abarth should not have a rectangular carb to manifold adapter plate   :-X

And in the end, it does not even look Abarthish beneath the bonnet.

The good thing is that  you can have a 126 Giannini by only changing the stickers  :P

PS- Sorry for being a hater  :$
