Your car was part of an article in the dutch Autovisie magazine 22-2007.
Here is a picture. If you are interested I can ask for back issues. It is not without mistakes but nice to see your car!
Here is a little translation of this part: At a dutch Fiat specialist we found a quite scarce sportive Fiat, a 131 Racing.But because in the right taillight stand Sport instead of Racing we guessed it should be a car from Germany and that is true.On the C style stands the sign from Walter R?hrl who became a WRChampion in 1980 with the 131 Abarth. Fiat did a good marketing job working with the extreme popularity of this rallyecrack by introducing a special Walter R?hrl edition.(  This is my own textThis car is not completely it, it is built in 1979 but that doesn't matter at all. It lacks the stickers at the sides and the foglights, that's all. About the spoilers, I saw them with Fiat sport on and with H?rmann. I expect the WR is nothing more as a normal Sport with a few aftermarket details. And you can R?hralise your car quite easy if you want too because it stands nowhere)
The car here is an orange example from 1979 which still wears its original paint. When Martin tells that this car was owned by a 85year old man I have to laugh.Older cars were the mostly from older men when you have to believe the seller, but in this case it is really true.It had to be a very sportive old guy. And even nicer, he was the 1st owner. He kept the car till the summer of 2004.The clock shows 33.700km but it went round 1 time. When you know the troubles with rust from this model, this car looks very well.The interior is a little less but the material is easy wearing. Under the bonnet there is some work to do so we cannot drive the car.The son from the 1st owner tried to do a few mechanical changes but didn't bring it to an good end and offered the car.Martin found the car through friends who also own a Sport themselves. Soon the 131 will be repaired and is for sale for 6500E including dutch registration. With that price it isn't cheap but these cars come up for sale not too often.

( I only translated almost literally)
