Attractions

Even though it was about to go out of production, to be replaced by the Fiat Uno now ready to debut, the legendary Fiat 127 left the scene in style, reasserting its role as a major player in the segment of lively and fun small cars. The latest Sport versions of the 127 were able to make themselves loved by hot-hatch enthusiasts for their particularly sporty character. It was a model that was short-lived, but managed to win a reputation that endures to this day. Road-holding worthy of a Mini and unmistakable Italian lines - what more could you want?

This example has only had two previous owners - the last of whom owned it for a good 15 years - and has rarely been used for events and rallies. It is very original indeed and still has its original BZ number plates and its original registration book. An opportunity not to be missed!
