Yes, welcome - hope you stick around
Wow, your 131 is awsome
Looking at the pictures gives me goose bumps - you can just tell that not only has it been built right but also built well

Geez,guys,never thought the thing would get this much attention.I'm very pleased with you bunch. I'm still ironing out little bits and bobs.New uprated diff going in soon,and i want to redesign the rear suspension. The only flaw it has is indeed my driveline.Breaks it to pieces.

I read the words 'Fiat 131', 'turbo' and '550bhp' and laughed like a loon. Love it.

Everything they said and... That is just plain gorgeous, it's rare I look at another mans car and want it just the way it is (That's meant as a compliment, but if you saw my cars you might not think so
). But you've done so well there, that is so choice.
Thanks for posting them up, and like the others said, stick around. It's a rare place.

Hehehe,just strapped a sl55 AMG so hard its eyeballs bled.I fear this car.It gives me the shakes.I just had some massive wheelspin there in third gear at 160kmh. And then,it just stands there,innocently clik-clicking as it cools down. This thing is going to kill me some day.......

LMAO at "trouser apocalypse". What you guys think?I want to change the inners of the rims to that old yellowy gold they used to paint on the CSL's and RS Escorts. Or the more redish gold like on the Stratos.

Your car makes my willy feel funny. I want it...Nay, NEED it. *n
