If only I hadn't put OPD in the bodyshop! although it seems like this car needs a lot of work too...

No, it was £600.

this also means the advert lies..

Explain?

[Bar Vitelli]

I think Chris will have misread the advertisement i.e. it had been garaged for a long time when you bought it.

It's a beautiful car and I still regret not buying it!

Good luck with the sale, it needs work but will be a minter once done...

[DeVilleChris]

Yeah my fault, I did misread it 

It is a nice car I agree.. I wanted to buy it.

I do apologise

[1973/126]

 Will be interesting to see if someone puts a bid in.

 Good luck to the seller.

Come on it does come with a pair of mudflaps and there has been no molesting on the back seat so it has got to be worth it

It was actually registered on 8th August 1973 which makes it (as far as I am aware) the 2nd oldest original 126 in the country...if it was a bit less and a bit closer it really would be worth a view...

[Kent126]

Whos got the first?

There is an 1973 'L reg' kicking about somewhere. It was a Fiat demonstrator, im sure.

Bar Vitelli has the oldest surviving example we know of in Britain. The L plate demonstrator was pre production, no signs that it survived any time at all.
