Title: The very best X1-9...? Post by: kev131 on October 22, 2011, 08:17:46 PM http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BREATHTAKING-1981-FIAT-X19-1500-JUST-2900-DRY-MILES-NEW-1-OWNER-TILL-2011-/200666477091?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item2eb8a77223
I'm going to guess a minimum reserve of ?8000!! :) Title: Re: The very best X1-9...? Post by: mirafioriman on October 22, 2011, 09:03:42 PM Nice example of its kind. Shame it's a X1/9 ;)
Title: Re: The very best X1-9...? Post by: 131NZ on October 22, 2011, 09:08:23 PM Here is the picture..... 'You' have bought this car. Here is the question...... What would you do with it? Be interesting to hear opinions.
If it was mine, I would be terrified to use it as i would want to preserve it. But would this be right as its meant to be enjoyed? So many opinions..... whats yours? Title: Re: The very best X1-9...? Post by: kev131 on October 22, 2011, 09:10:18 PM Always a good debate Paul. :)
I'm definetly in the "use it" category. I've no interest in saving it just for someone else to enjoy...although I would take exceptional care of it while I'm at it. ;) Title: Re: The very best X1-9...? Post by: Rob 131 on October 23, 2011, 05:45:53 AM Like everything in life it depends on how keen someone is to get their hands on what is a truely wonderful and rare X19.
I would suggest that the end figure could be into ? 5 Digits between 11-12k Title: Re: The very best X1-9...? Post by: bellamacchina on October 23, 2011, 09:06:14 AM I could put this car on display in our livingroom ;D
Title: Re: The very best X1-9...? Post by: mirafiori76 on October 23, 2011, 09:35:14 AM It's surely a wonderful example. Personally i prefer the early 70's model. I like the chrome bumpers instead of these huge beams... ;)
Title: Re: The very best X1-9...? Post by: chris131 on October 23, 2011, 10:47:58 AM This car was sold a few weeks ago on pistonheads for around ?5,000. See link below:

Post by: mirafioriman on October 23, 2011, 11:00:22 AM Will be interesting to see if they make a profit or not. I might be wrong but I think the seller makes his living by buying nice cars, detailing them and preparing them to a high standard and selling them on for a profit.
