This is awesome and in period rally livery it'd be even better. That blue is gopping!

Still remember making a Tamiya one just like that

A 131 rally car would be on my lottery win wish list. Awesome looking things!

I love that and the colour.

Another fiat - https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/1987-Fiat-Uno- ... 3209079337

Is that priced in Lira to keep with the retro 80s theme?

I used to think the Uno Turbo was a funky bit of kit back in the day, but looking at it there and it just looks gawky, awkward and as if it was designed and built by simpletons.

Mk2 obviously not loved like the Mk1.

A friend had 2 in the early 90's and the later 1.4 one was rapid, admittedly it may have been modified but it would leave the usual 16v Golf for dead

Looking back he had some odd ball cars in his first 10yrs of driving, Fiat Strada 105TC X2, 128 3P, the Uno's, Lancia Delta HF Turbo then an Integrale, Alfa Suds, 3l 75, GTV6 just to name a few .

I had a Superstrada 85 whilst at uni.

I sooo lusted after a black 105TC that lived locally. A 130TC was a dream too far....

Only 4 105's left on the road

Yikes! Only 3 130TC as well.

I am not surprised though - mine was a 1982 car in 3 different colours, and I had to bodge numerous structural rust repairs. I I had a rear wishbone break due to rust too. (Broke at one point only, so the wheel started steering under load - really freaked me out. The car was only about 8yrs old at that point!

And the contents of the fuse box were similarly corroding, so it had many many electrical gremlins too.

I was a big fan of the Strada 130tc too and even looked at a couple but they were going down hill rapidly even when not that old. I eventually bought an Escort RS turbo instead. You may chortle but at the time it was a cool car

Bet you wish you'd kept it! 30k now!

Quite a few if I had the space/money.

If you want to see what the next big thing is going to be keep an eye on what I've recently sold seems to be the easiest way.

A hot rod with a 1.8?

It looks like they dropped a 200sx from the space station onto a 1930’s Wraith then drove it through Halfords.
