I love it!  8) 8) My first car was a 128 series 2 1300CL 4-door followed by several 128 3Ps.  ;D I passed my test in a 3P! I totally love 128s. Wish I could afford this one. Very rare now. :-\

The only 128 I like is the 3P :) I was almost born in a 128 3P ;D I think this is why I like Fiat's ;D

But I really like the 128 saloons too and especially the Rally  :)

It's a lovely looking car (I love sporty boxy Fiats). It's the same colour as my Dad's 124 Special T (reg no STI 466).

This looks a bargain to me at <?5000.

I had a 1275 GT that left 128 3ps for dust at the lights fact!

I like the 128 Rally and this does seem a bargain, nice small boxy shape. Did like Mike Wards blue one. :)

Never keen on the 3p's but always heard from the owners on how fast they were. Remember Ricky from Solo italia having a Orange one with Uno turbo lump in the 90's.

Big fan of 128 3p's Bob Matthews (FMC) local to me, need to pop round to see him some time.

I've always liked 128's with the exception of the late 70's Hatchback / Estate Model (that was never much of a looker :-\).

The 3P is a great looking sporty car. You could have had a 1300/1600 underpowered Capri or a 3P. No choice really  ;).

Favourite 128  :) Must be a late 70's 4 Door Saloon, preferably in Bright Green  :o ;D

I love those cars too, my dad bought a two door in 1976 but traded it in for the 131 in 1978 which I currently own. Do you think he made a mistake?  ;) ;D

I love sporty boxy Fiats, too  :)

Nice pics and here is one more.

Looks mint on the pictures but it is advertised quite a long time. Price started with 5.900?  :o

I considered buying it myself, but now I am on a new 131-project  ;D 8) 8) ;D

The SOHC engine in these cars were awesome. A 127GT fan we use to know of which my dad did some work on his cars had one hell of a machine. It was Black 1982 with a very very fast road set up, close ratio gears, twin DCNF's, exhaust, high lift cam, vernier and Cromadoras on 185's. I have seen the rev counter go off the clock in 2nd gear....amazing in it's day. Wonder what happened to it. If only my Punto 55s 1108cc runner and dump anywhere car was like those engines ;D ;D
