These are not my pics but saw them posted else where and as my car is in them thought I would post here.

Fiat Abarth 124 Rally, very rare in UK.

The whole series of pics if you want to look, very much Lancia dominated tho.

They all look gorgeous. How come the Integralle (spelling ) is always in such good condition, i've never seen a bad one. I had a HF turbo and a 1.5 iirc and they both went downhill rather rapidly. Is it just a case of enthusiasts having to spends lots to keep them tip top or are they just better made over all ?

I don't know to be honest, but fasticous (spelling?) owners do come into it. The Repsol livered one in the pics was completely rebuilt at great cost as those coloured sections are painted on just like the real thing, not stickers, but it was in a bad way and this was reflected in the price, I think about 7K when the guy who owns it bought it.

All Deltas were galvanised from new as they were built using technology from SAAB as believe it or not basic Deltas were sold in Sweden as SAAB's. And SAAB 9000's are in fact the same car as Fiat Croma and Lancia Thema so in theory they should last well, but many don't due to neglect & lack of dealer network now.

THe funny thing is a guy came to my house today to buy my old Recaro interior and he was driving a red H plate HF Turbo and it was near mint apart from one small area at the front screen that had bubbled under the paint.

Some cracking car there. Is that a genuine 124 Abarth?
