Nice ........ very nice

Were these ever available as an option on the 131 Great if they were! I'd have had two

The interesting thing about the photo of course is the colour of the car at the front! It looks blue to me  and I didn't know such a colour was available for the Racing/Sport

It's gun metal Theo - This is a photo from the official German brochure on the Mirafiori Sport.

Ladioes feature in quite a few of the images.

Are you sure? It looks very blue on my PC but then it's not a good scan of the photo...

[kev131]

Yup I'm sure. 

It's likely some corruption in the colour reproduction.

looks like a mans head on a womans body ??

I found the brochure (German) Theo? - It is is dated Nov 1978.

Top speed : 175 km/h (109 mph)

Wheels - 13inch with 187/70/13 and

only 2 colours showing in the pics - Grey & Orange.





I can see why you though blue Theo - One could convince oneself looking at the car.

And there is that woman again! - Crawling around on the grass now - Si - Are you sure you would like two...? Maybe you were thinking about stoking the fire rather than looking at the fireplace...??

Wheels - 13inch with 187/70/13

Not to be an anorak but surely you mean 185/70/13 

[Thotos]

I thought the 13" wheels had 175/70/13

The 1600 TC super had 165/13 as standard on steel rims( normal 80 percent aspect ratio)same cross spoke panel style as the sport/racing only 5J width but they later changed the rim width to 5.5J and fitted 185/70/13 tyres-goodyear I beleive at the time before the goodyear NCT came out -cant remember exactly what they were -but i digress-As you are well aware the sport came with 185/60/14 pirelli P6s fitted as standard .Same cross spoke panel but coloured all bronze/brown as against the silver/ black panels on the 16 TC super -They stopped making the pirelli P6 in 1994- why i dont know -quite possibly -in my opinion the best tyre ever made -
They should bring the pirelli P6 back on the market -Along with the 131 sport to go with it 

[simon131]

Yeah - I'd still have two. She'd look silly with just one

[neckar fan]

Nice car and picture! And -as far as I can see- with the red interior, like mine. Did you get the lovely girl iof you bought a new one?

The 13"wheels on the Racing were fitted with 185/70/13 tyres.
