That thread was an interesting read. A good find! I liked the bit where one poster informed us how the 131 Abarth only had 115 BHP. Exactly the same as the 131 mirafiorisport / racing? A bit like how most people selling a sport gearbox with the Abarth marked gearshift claim it is an Abarth gearbox and try to ask hundreds for it!

I particularly like this line

" That was a Mirafiori. I was always wary of them after that, just in case the driver was a hooligan. "

 ;D ;D ;D

I was enjoying this thread until I got to this paragraph....

Getting back on topic (he says hypocritically), there was a Supercharged 140 BHP / 4-door / 16v version of the 131 (The "Volumetrico" ). These really are rare, and people often buy them to pilfer the engine for other Fiat-engined classics:

Nooooo!!!!!!!!!!! :'(

Don't anyone get any ideas......? >:( ;D
