For a person so keen on selling the cars, I am suprised he hates them so much. Bidding is well over £2000 so I suppose he is doing something right.

As a late 126, the rust will certainly come through, as a 10 year old car this must have a been a 'Happy End' Unless is wasn't really a 2000 car. but I am sure this seller wouldn't 'fibb' :)

I shall remember that price when my wife tells me I have more money than brains to spend anything on my 126  :P

I do like some bits on that car. I love the idea of a gear shift gate plate thing. The amount of times iv gone for 4th and got 2nd is unreal, or my other trick of "why wont it go into 5th???!!!"  :oops:

I like the gutter trims, is there anywhere i can get me some of those? The speedo head is a bit chav though!!!

When a 126 engine is on song and revving away, the engine moves quite a bit...so does the gearbox.

Twice now I have seen it happen at Retro Rides on the track where 3rd becomes illusive. It has happened to me often too.
I think a brace/mounting of some sort to try limit the rocking of the engine would resolve this but the gear gate and gutter trims are available from ricambi fiat 500 or Ricambio I think.

Nice wheels, but that's it.

I can't see any special edition Fiat being fitted with Rover Mini bumpers, but there you go.

He can have my ELX as a base if he's making £1500 on each one... that'll be £1600 for me thank you!

All joking aside, I wouldn't sell it to him.
