It's not a Fiat, but still very nice!

It's the missus's car, there's no room left for it on the drive (!!) so she's thinking of switching to a Fiat! 

Shout out if anyone is interested!

I was at a classic car show in the summer, one of these won the show. It upset a lot of people when they found out it was newer than most peoples daily driver

Say what you like about eBay but you can't beat it for getting to an audience quickly...we've had over 250 views and have 14 watchers already! 

If it sells, the missus is up for a 126, does life get any better than that? (!!) 

Only problem is that I think we are probably selling it too cheaply as I really don't have a clue about Beetle prices.  I don't want to go on a Beetle forum and (apologies) I know that this is a Fiat 126 forum but wondered if any of you guys had a view?

It's mint, original, low mileage, sounds amazing and has been very well looked after and it's also got the quirky feature (that you'll either love or hate) of being one of the last ever made as well.

To find out the real price of anything, an honest advert on Ebay with decent pictures will always give the true value of anything on any given day.

Pretty awesome! Didn't even realise they were making beetles until so recently! I know in South Africa they still made the original MK1 golf, albeit with a slightly updated and more modern interior from a Skoda Fabia, and they called it the citi golf;

A few made it to the UK on private imports.

The only VW that really floats my boat though is a Lupo GTi if anyone has one going cheap!?

My modern daily drive is an 04 plate Seat Arosa 1 litre sport. Got it as an almost new ex demo car & it has been a great little car. It is really a Seat badged Lupo but they also did the 16 valve 1.4 litre version. I have only ever seen one on the road but you could include it in your search. 

[Kent126]

They are good cars, and the 1.4 Arosa is probably quite quick, but im a bit of a snob and really want a GTi. Plus the GTi is a 1.6 and is rapid!!!!!!!!! I want a white one, or a silver one.

I'd keep it standard and keep the original GTi alloys, but just lower it slightly.

Still dreaming.....

Half of your views are probably from us lot though. And us club members are not daft enough to buy some archaic rear engined contrivance are we.
