Dazzo asked what have we all been doing. Well the Sedici and I have been to Enfield Pageant of Motoring - in so much rain we nearly drowned, the M25 was indeed a swimming pool. However my car did meet up with a new friend!! Yes thats another one and a very tidy 1.4!!

MIKE

L reg Mk1? Must have been the very last of the Mk1s?

Looking nice. Almost twins

did you get details Mike, pass on the forum 0any of them..

rich

Nice to see the weather don't stop some people doing what they enjoy best,
Nice display of Tea-pots there,
Hope the rain did'nt dampen your spirits too much mike,

hmmmm i have L41 SWS so wouldnt that be the twin?? lol

Hello again............Rich - sorry old chap not sure what your post meant - perhaps I am being thick. The owner of the other black teapot is Malcolm, the North London Area organiser for the Fiat Motor Club, the 1.4 belongs to his daughter. There was also a 127 Palio there belonging to my pal Gavin and we were hoping for 1 possibly 3 more Sedics for a "group photo" - how sad is that !! But rain stopped play.

MIKE

Ps - Some more information on the "scotish" twin would be useful - I will get Malcolm to come on the forum to check it out

well right now the scottish twin is in bits as some previous owner put kent cams in and did all sorts with the engine and it never ran properly and he sold it. i've had it for almost a year and a half in my barn/shed. right now i've just been grinding valves into a new head, they're .

its only done 57000 miles and its extremely clean!! i've known where its been for the past 4 yrs or so and thats mostly in garages in the dry lol

anywyas will keep you updated on progess and when its fxed will try to get to some fiat meets for a photo!!
