Description

The Strada 130TC Abarth was a fascinating left-field entry into the 'hot-hatch' wars of the 1980s, posting better performance figures than the omnipresent Golf GTi
Performance-focused with a 128bhp, 2-litre Twin-Cam mated to a 5-speed, close-ratio ZF box offering 0-60 in 7. 6 seconds
UK-supplied car from 16 years ownership before moving into a private Collection in 2022, with less than 59, 000 miles from new
Subject to a bare-shell restoration in 2006 with replacement panels fitted as necessary, new suspension and fully prepared and refinished in Rosso Medio, however the original Recaro interior was in excellent condition and was retained. Fully Waxoyled
Very little use since the restoration and fully commissioned since joining the current Collection in 2022
Photographic history of restoration, all original books, service book, original Fiat workshop manual, recommissioning invoices and more. Although on 27th March this will be an historic vehicle, our vendor has put a Fiat main dealer MOT on the car
Almost certainly the best UK-supplied Strada Abarth available today - will you ever get another chance to own one?
