General Photos of My New Then 105 TC

[Another Fiat]

As promised here are some photos of my 105 TC not long after I bought it new. I was chuffed at the time to get a registration with X at both ends to give a balanced look - you can tell I'm a designer!

And here is a picture in 1984 of us driving (well parked!) down to the south of France. On the way we had a 125 TC overtake us and give us a wave - the only one I've ever seen. We took about 3 days driving down and the same coming back. Great roads and great memories.

Great photos. I wasn't old enough to drive then, but I did notice a few 130tc's on the way to school, awesome cars, I'm very lucky to own one now!

Do you know what happened to your car?

No, saw it once or twice after I part ex'ed it for a Regatta not far from where I live but the wheels had been painted red!

Like most of them I expect the rot set in and it was scrapped?

Loved the 105TC. I remember my uncle seeing off a few XR3i's in his lol. Such a lovely smooth revvy engine.

last taxed in 1988, so doesn't look like it made it into old age!

remember these when I was a kid, they disappeared so quickly, I had kind of forgotten what they looked like!

Great car and fine photos, About 11 years ago I had 125TC mk1 but it was black with red decals "abarth2000". great fun to drive!

Yes it is lovely to see pictures of all Stradas, espeically the 1xx TC series.

Needless to say they are all becoming rarer and rarer so current pictures are few and far between.

I've often thought about having a Strada 1xx TC picture gallery on my website to go along with the other Strada technical content I'm pulling together. All that is really stopping me is that I can not just pull pictures off the internet (like so many others illegaly do without permission) so would have to rely on owner submitted material. The problem with this is that there are few owners around these days to supply legal pictures.
