idiot! i really can't believe the nerve of some people. if it was a ferrari enzo bumper i'd understand...

My god!! i have a brand new front racing bumper still in its fiat wrapping, maby i will paint one of the old ones now ;D ;D ;D

And its only the outer part Thats just meanness

Isn't this a gold Racing bumper? Still a ridiculous price!

Looks like it Albert, shhh dont tell the seller that or he will up the price ;D ;D ;D

True ;D I'll tell Kev, than he has the first part for the black 'n gold car he want( or I have to look for JPS adhesives ;D)

Albert those black & gold sport/racings were the seats pippin red or brown?

If you mean the seats they were black mostly, but I know there was a small serie with brown seats. As far as I know red was only with dark grey. But Simon once had a black car with red, was it a swapjob Simon?

He is crazy.
I saw too much parts on ebay.it from him.
all them are very expensive and he dont want discount.

Here is another example...

Nick - Here are pics of the light brown seats - Just like my Dad's car and never seen again by me since except on the net.

Andrew who bought Jason's Sport had a spares car in a lock-up garage (came from Germany I think) which had those "diarrhoea" coloured (Andrew's description not mine but very apt  ;D) seats. They were in excellent condition and he probably still has them if you wanted to make him an offer and fit them to your Sport  ;D ;D  

Yes I would be interested - Especially if he had the matching door cards - How do I get in touch with him Theo..? :)

I won't be fitting them to an orange car though....!! :o

well i would love to see them in the flesh so to speak, i never saw that colour before, they look lush but like faded??

I've sent you a PM with contact details Kevin.

In fact Andrew is registered on this forum as Mowlem (http://131mirafiori.com/smf/index.php?action=profile;u=166) but he has never posted and has not visited this forum since 2007.

I thought I had photos of those seats but I can't find them at the moment. But I did find a photo of Jason's Sport when it was Andrew's (I think it still is). The lock-up with the diarrhoea coloured 131 Sport interior was straight ahead of the car in the photo.  ;D

NUTS! that's argenta doormiror and i bought a pair of those brand new, boxes never opened for 12e a piece this spring

well lads there is an upside to this if those prices are anything to go by then our cars are an investment as they will be worth quids sometime?

I suspect that would have to be the last Argenta mirror in the world to make that price! They often appear at the moment on ebay for much less ;)

You would imagine that agenta mirrors would not be as hard to get as say 131 or 132

non of those mirrors is rare at all. along with argenta mirrors i also bougt mirrors for 131 and for 132. same price all

Always someone out for a killing

There is a pair of these mk1 rear lenses on Ebay USA and they have only got to $10 (approx ?6) only thing is indicator lens is red..............

i'll sell same item at 200e and make a 400% profit! anyone interested?

This 131 instrument panel on Italian ebay for 150 euros and its from a pushrod model mk1 !!!!

great, i'll sell my old CL mk3 dash for half that price if anybody wants it... i was just about to throw it away

Yes me too, but I dont think these people actually sell bits at these prices, think they are just trying it on in the hope that some mug might come along ?

i don't think that they really make those prices. perhaps for some rare bits, but for majority of these items definately not. on the other hand, who knows? there might still be fools out there?

problem is that people are getting wrong ideas when they see such prices. if for example i wanted to sell instrument panel from my 131, i'd definately check out the prices of simmilar items before i determine my price. if i saw mk1 dash fir 150, and perhps another one for 120e, i'd come to logical, yet wrong, conclusion that my dash is worth about the same. preety soon someone who really needs such item won't ne able to buy it for less money. that's how prices of 131 abarth cars have doubled and tripled over past couple of years.

that's also why all items marked abarth have reached astronomical prices, even those that aren't rare at all.

btw, in my humble opinion, that instrument panel is worth 20-30e

Ive just sold one from a mk3 supermirafiori to Greece for ?15 but I will never want it as its not sport one and rather pass it on to someone that can make use of it.

I gave a pair of instrument panels to Jason for his CL. And he gave me some 131 bits in return that would fit my Sport but not his CL. That's what the 131 community should be about: helping each other to keep the cars going so we can enjoy them. Trying to make lots of money out of used bits is just wrong and as djape1977 said it gives the uninitiated the wrong idea about these cars. Yagmur sells high quality new parts for a lot less than some people are trying to sell their used parts!

Very good point Theo & as miro pointed out about the stupid prices being asked for stuff on the for sale section
those people should be on the down to business section & the barter system or helping each other & not ripping the * on the for sale & wanted, i have done business with some of the lads on here as well as Yagmur & have gotten a great & satisfying service, & good parts also.

but it's available from that finish company for 50e, and that's a bit pricey in my oppinion

Wow - absolutely nuts - He's wasting his listing fee.

I've never seen a 3 square dash set that is missing the centre clock - I wonder is it from a commercial version...? ???

nice find! a bargain  ;D

That is the clock in the centre Kev. It's the rev-counter that's 'missing' which means it's for a basic 'L' version.

I think you mean 1300 CL version Theo - The L version for S2 had the S1 base model clocks.

Anyway look at the second picture (which I should have explained was the one I was refrerring to) - There are two different clocks for sale.... so only ?100 each!!  ;)

Didn't see the second set  of clocks! Now I've put my glasses on, I can see it's for a 131 Diesel as it says on it Kev! ;D

that gearbox must be made of uranium alloy to be so expensive

the link for wheels is in fact for whole car, give us the right link to see those wonderfull 100 a piece wheels. must be diferent to those that i've bought couple of years back for 12e a piece

Well,

You think 60 quid is silly - look at this 118 Euro "abarth" piece :

http://cgi.ebay.de/Fiat-131-ABARTH-rally-16-V-Thermostat-Neuteil_W0QQitemZ130317440631QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutoteile_Zubeh%C3%B6r?hash=item1e57865677  

The problem is that this 118 euro thermostat is the "coolest" thermostat there is on the market.
This part has been manufactured specially for the seller, and is the only standard housing ("three way") thermostat with 71 degrees Celsius rating  on the market.

The one who ordered it now is getting return on his investment.

This is not a trader abut a dealer, but e-bay is now dominated by dealers . Real traders are very rare , indeed. The silly prices is really a direct result of this domination. (Incidentally if you select "auctions only" you avoid most of e-bay based internet dealers.)  
 
I have actually bought one and than decided to use it for my 124 spider. The 131 new engine uses and the whole return flow to the radiator has been cut off with the t-piece blocked on one side. So, there is a way to get the job done for 20 quid and a bit of work.

See picture from dyno !
