Title: Irish Fiat 124
Post by: kev131 on December 31, 2008, 08:02:45 PM
I went to see this little gem owned by Mike O Neill today (he who is looking to source some 124 parts on another thread). One of my favourite activities is meeting new classic Fiat owners and seeing their cars .... when time permits.? :)

This is an original Irish car from 1971 and assembled in Ireland. Curiously it has a series 1 grill. The car came with a bundle of papers from 1972 and upon browsing through them Mike came across an advert for a brand new Fiat 125 for ?1200. He's thinking of ringing up about it over the holiday.? ;D

Mike is a huge 124 enthusiast owning several of the cars but it is this one that Mike hopes to have on the road for 2009 and ready for any classic Fiat events that may happen along. Hope you like the pics.

Thanks to Mike for showing me his car and telling me some of his Fiat stories.? :)
