First one ive seen for a while on e bay, looks like a good buy at the moment, will be interesting to see what she finally goes for.
I think i would change those wheels though or at least paint them all Black or Silver. Otherwise looks in good nick.

This has been for sale for quiet a while now.Last time round when this car was for sale,the owner said that if the car didn't sell,he was going to take a Consaw and cut it up.Seems this didn't happen or else he had no blade for the Consaw .Hope he doesn't carry out his threat this time .Eugene

Well here is a chance for someone on the site with no 131 or even any old Fiats to buy a decent and rare drive away classic

[mirafioriman]

Yes I remember this one it has been advertised on here and in other places a while back I think. I have seen the car in the flesh a few years ago when it was beige and belonged to Guy from Derby. Will be interested too to see how much it makes. If it was a sport I'm sure it will sell for a good price, but four doors still rarely make good money.

Sorry Eugene just found the blades, they were behind the sledge in the corner 

[gay131lover]

hi theredx19 is this your car i was looking for left back quather panel if you get your blade in thats if it doesnt sell would take back window as well

[parrish]

Not sold 1521 euros.

We all procrastinate about how rare these cars are and about how much we think our cars are worth and then look at this, no offers over 1500 euros?

The Irish chain saw masacre might just be about to start!

As I said, four doors rarely make good money

[theredx19]

well very true these cars dont seem to be valued by people even those who know how hard it is to get a rust free one. I have been in contact with the lad that was selling this car and it was sold for a 1000 euro and is now owned by a lad who is going to stock car race it as his father raced one so there goes a large quantity of rust free panels, this is a terrible shame so with a heavy heart we say goodbye to another 131 

[mirafioriman]

Why did he sell it for 1000 euro when it made over 1500 euro on ebay? Seems silly to me.

[theredx19]

Messers on Ebay so he sold it to the only person who seems to have had any value in these cars, what a shame as the panels were all very good on the car but the new owner said he will put its first race up on you tube as he said it was the only car his Dad had that made 3 full races without major body work...

[brensport]

I agree with u Dave everybody wants one and talks about buying one until it comes to parting with a few euro the kind of money this man was looking for this car would not even get you a decent holiday Sad 

[theredx19]

Very true Brensport sure you have been in mine I just dont have the room anymore as I trying to save enough Fiats at home, but sure this 1500 euro would hardly even cover the price of bringing one home from Italy so let this be a lesson to anyone looking at bringing a 4 door home that they could have had one for the price of shipping. As regards the cars price I think I have seen complete sheds of 4 doors in the uk go for this money needing tlc (bulls*%$) they need doors wings floors and sills and now these panels off this car will probably have some 2.8 granada stuck in them come next weekend. It is this fact that upsets me when people say how rare a rust free one is and yet these same people have messed around over a few hundred euro and now look at what is happening, we need to be ashamed here  R.I.P poor orange 4 door

[sid131]

Dead right lads lots of bulls***ers about saying they want one but heres what happens, this car needed a nice bit of work but could have been saved, what a waste, it wont last long stockcar racing, anyway what idiot would stockrace a car like this anyway?? cant swear on the forum!!

[mirafioriman]

Being completely honest (and not wanting to upset anybody) the description of the car on ebay was very brief and there were no photos of key areas. My previous selling experience is that a detailed and positive write up with photos can make a big difference to the final value. I also think that the car suffered as it was neither a super or a sport. Perhaps people want one or the other but are unwilling to pay a lot for a hybrid. Or, perhaps it was just the fact that there is a shortage of money at the moment. I too have the same problem, the super I have for sale does need work, but despite having had a lot of email enquiries about the car, no one has bought it.

One thing is certain though, if both this car and my car were 2 door versions, they would both be sold and probably for a high price!
