Post by: James on August 15, 2008, 09:01:12 AM I took this at an Italian Marques series at Snetterton 1990/91.Mirafiori Sport Racer that from memory finished mid table amongst De Tomaso Pantera ,328 GTS , Alfa GTV's and 130tc...Have another dozen photos of the field and will upload to the general topics site for interest.

Post by: James on August 17, 2008, 12:52:39 PM Thanks for the replies (Kevin,Mick and Gerry)In answer to Micks query regarding the alloys i've no idea if these are the ones you bought from ebay...I'm sure i found out about this Italian Marques series through the old Twin Cam Register newsletter when i was a member back in the late 80's and living near Snetterton made the trip.If any members have copies from this date then there is a good chance of finding out who raced this 131...With regards to Gerry's question if i owned or own a 131 Sport the answer is No.All these pictures were taken before i could drive , i've never driven one before and although for sentimental reasons i would love to have one i've always wondered strangely if i would be dissapointed with the experience!!I have a 330ci Sport which i enjoy lots.....but i know one day i'll have to buy one just to rekindle some early experiences!!

dont leave it too long with the way prices keep going up maybe come over to classic fiat event in october{see events} meet new friends and we get you a spin in a 131 sport, just dont compare it to your 330ci or the fiat will be doomed gerry |
