Is the car still for sale? Or for sale again? And what's with the video of the red 131 Abarth? Same car, different livery? Ever so much spectacular to see a rear wheel driven car compared to 4-wheel drive  :)

Hello, the last news I had the car, will make a couple of years, it was in the hands of Santiago Canizares, former football goalkeeper valencia cf
Classicos rally in the Mediterranean, the untoward 131abarth and I had a qa stood in his graje without leaving.
Surely it is he who sells it.

The company has been selling it for couple of years? Quite heavy understeer in slow speed. But, so slow speed when crashed that practicly no heavy damages I think.

This is just poor driving and totally unnecessary. Sure the front of the car is much heavier comparing to the rear but obviously the driver has not the knowledge that the 131 Abarth group 4 car is steered with the tail end/throttle for 90 % and only 10% with the steering wheel.
