Title: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: Thotos on February 15, 2014, 09:39:17 PM An Austin Rover dealer on London's North Circular Road, D. J. Ketteringham, is planning to sell up and has, among his liquidation stock, a 1987 Fiat Regata 85 Super in blue, registration E824 XGK. The car has been off the road, but stored under cover, since at least 1997 and is reported to be near-immaculate. For details of the car click the link below:

You can email the garage on djketteringham@gmail.com or call +44 (0)20 8452 7825. All prices are said to be ?sympathetically negotiable' so the Regata might be the bargain of 2014 ;) Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: jack1 on February 16, 2014, 02:46:49 PM rare enough car ,, think I know someone on here that might have an interest,,,,
wonder what year that asking price was put on it Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: sid131 on February 16, 2014, 07:02:58 PM Nice rover V8 there that would look good in my garage lol!
i did have one many moons ago was easier on fuel that my 131 FIB 1588 :D Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: Sev131 on February 16, 2014, 10:51:51 PM Chris where are you, this is yours ;)
My dad bought one of these for ?50 and traded it on in the days. Served his mate well as a runner round. Don't rot as bad as 131's either. Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: c.a.c131 on February 17, 2014, 05:06:53 PM I seen a photo of this Regata before :) I would like a Regata but a 100S would be the one I would want ! But you never know ;D

Post by: Ciaran on February 25, 2014, 10:26:11 PM I know the garage so popped in today for a look, OMG definitely like being in a time warp, the car has been in the showroom for sale since is was a year or 2 old and is had and still has had the same asking price on the screen ever since the day it arrived in the showroom ! The car is spotless apart from a 1 or 2 minor knocks on the bodywork and a cracked headlamp but the car is a one off and totally original and certainly rust free as the car has not been outside the warm showroom in over 25 years ! Do I don't I or have I enough wheels around the house and as I currently have no garage to keep her warm and dry. Seems a crime to leave her outside after all this time inside in the warm showroom. Def a car for a collector who appreciates a Regata and a cheap intro to a classic Fiat. ?2.250 with a new MOT will buy it.
Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: Sev131 on February 26, 2014, 03:50:55 PM ?2250 for a Twin cam may be but not a 85S.
Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: simon131 on February 26, 2014, 04:04:50 PM I don't think the money will be an issue Bobby. All depends upon condition.
When was the last time you saw a Regata for sale? Let alone one in nice condition. Who'd have thought that an S3 1600CL 131 would be worth upwards of ?4k? Back in the day we'd have struggled to sell one for ?400! Prices for classic and semi-classic cars are on the up and the time to buy is now, before we are all priced out of the market. :-\ Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: bellamacchina on February 26, 2014, 04:44:16 PM Should Supers also get pricier after the priceboost on Racings?
Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: Sev131 on February 26, 2014, 05:01:42 PM I suppose so, I guess you only need that one buyer who will pay and they are out there :)
Albert Supers will follow hopefully, just take a few more years :( Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: sid131 on March 05, 2014, 10:58:19 AM This Regatta is now in Ireland ;D

What's the general condition? Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: sid131 on March 05, 2014, 01:14:29 PM Whats wrong that ya cant see the pics Kev?
Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: kev131 on March 05, 2014, 01:30:29 PM Whats wrong that ya cant see the pics Kev? Dunno - Might be a work filter. Will have a look again at home later..... Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: c.a.c131 on March 05, 2014, 02:43:02 PM I wonder who bought it ;D
Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: kev131 on March 05, 2014, 06:05:55 PM I thought you might - Congratulations Chris...she looks well.
Looking forward to seeing better photos and hearing how she drives...I must admit it's nice to have something other than a 131 in the fleet! :) Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: c.a.c131 on March 05, 2014, 07:56:22 PM I just had to have it ;D a very low miles RHD Regata & Super model too !
It has a very nice history with it :) The car dealer that was selling the Regata, D. J. Ketteringham took it into stock when it was 1 year old with 5000 miles, his wife drove it for many years. I have a letter from 1992 from Fiat with info about unleaded petrol to Mr Ketteringham, the Regata was sold to a Neighbour for his for a year or 2 it was always garaged, then traded back in 1997 & kept in the showroom till how. The Regata was kept running over the years. It's in timewarp condition, original paint & rust free :) a very rare fiat now & a great find. Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: david on March 06, 2014, 06:00:14 PM I had three of these, one of which was a B reg 100s and I have to say I hated them all and only bought them at the time because they were cheap. Always compared them to 131's which I thought was fare enough as they took over from them but the problem with that was they were a total let down in every respect and I thought they drove worse than the equivalent strada which was odd as they were basically the same car.
Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: donk r8 on March 07, 2014, 01:50:55 PM Well done, nice looking car..............................but have to say, I don't have much affection for regata's. We used to have a red 85s Weekend, worst car we ever had, breakdowns, rust and dealers who didn't have a clue how to fix it, but on the plus side it had loads of room for the kids and I loved the split tailgate. got some pics somewhere have to dig them out....................:) Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain?

Post by: david on March 09, 2014, 08:33:00 AM There is a trick with these fault panels that I found, well it was more on the lancia Thema's but the same set up really. If the oil dipstick sensor is faulty and you can't get the light to go out on the fault panel which is really annoying you can solder a dash light bulb (larger type) onto the dipstick end and it thinks everything is ok and the light will go out, must be the same resistance ?

All the Super spec toys inside are great too ;D Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: sid131 on March 15, 2014, 10:21:38 PM Dunkle ;)

These were the good old times when there were still 2 Germanys (but only one that built cars) ;) We were better off then, btw. The E30 (even for me, not being into BMWs) happens to be a nice little motor, especially when it comes like this: (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ef/BMW_M3_E30_rear_20090514.jpg/800px-BMW_M3_E30_rear_20090514.jpg) Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain?

Simon I think almost everyone likes the old school BMW's :) Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain? Post by: c.a.c131 on March 25, 2014, 01:44:56 PM A few more BMW e30 ;D

Post by: 106usj on March 30, 2014, 08:58:18 PM You made the right decision buying this one I think it looks great in every way.
The guy down the road from my dad's house had a beautiful red ie Regatta when I was about 15/16 but he traded it after about a year as he had electrical demons with it if my memory serves me right. Hope you enjoy it, a great car for a lazy slow take it easy Sunday sunny drive. Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain?

Pictures of that E30 bring the memories flooding back. I loved my Black 1986 320iSE bought in 1993. BMW's had such appeal back then ;D Title: Re: Regata 85 Super - Timewarp 1987 - Bargain?
