Our first 126 Bis.....

[Lioux]

Hello...
We got our first 126 this week, off Ebay and arrived on a trailer not sure how much work we have taken on!!  My 13 year old is very keen to get working on it which is great as he is very practical and doesn't mind getting his hands dirty and says that the car is just the right size for him
Didn't know if the engine was seized but a £15 battery from the scrap yard turned it over and had it sort of running!  Hoping to spend some time tomorrow draining all the fluids and giving it a good clean - which will probably double its value
Need to replace a few bits and bobs on it and unfortunately one of the rear light covers must have fallen off on the journey down the M5!
Will try to upload some photos of our progress
Looking forward to having fun driving it hopefully soon.....

Welcome and keep us updated

We have drained the coolant and fitting an inline fuel filter as recommended.....before we start it again.
I have a question... the cover that goes on top of the carb between it and the airfilter is missing, what is this bit called, do I need one and where can I get one??
