I was looking at Polski fiat 132's and this came up !  No script with it just a couple of pictures of a 131 sport that someone thinks is a 132 with chunky tyres obviously for the ice and snow in Poland and the wrong wheels.

It looks fairly new when the picture was taken as if it was of any age the Polish weather would have taken its toll on the body. Must have been like a mig fighter in comparison to to the skoda's and Lada's of the time.

I think we went and looked at that car and it had no interior and a big gap round the factory sunroof where seals should be for the rain to come in. Was it in north London ? and he was asking top dollar for it as well.

David, if it was Lime Green then it has to be EUL. I bought it from Potters bar in 2004.

It rings a bell but we looked at so many from the late eighties on. Did it have the battery fitted in the boot ? because the one I am thinking of did and I think it had a couple of downdrafts on it ? but these could have been removed.

Yes it did have the battery in the boot and side draft carbs when I bought, but may have had downdrafts when you saw it.

The guy I bought it off also had a 1959 VW split screen camper and was in the Trade I think.
