FSO 125p Estate

[d4ry1]

Hello all.

 

Does anyone have any idea what an FSO 125p Estate would be worth?

 

It's a one owner car with full service history up to 1988 when it was last driven. It has been sat in a garage and untouched for 23 years. It has only 17,000 miles on the clock. I do not have the keys so have no idea if it starts.

 

It's Cream with Brown go-faster stripes and Brown Leather seats. There is NO rust at all on this car, which I hear is incredibly rare.

 

Any idea would be really helpful

Very hard to say as there's not many about. In fact I think the last one I saw advertised was a stupidly priced (£3,500 or so!) one that was on eBay.

 

I'd suggest the one you're talking about is worth about £400 tops. Go for it!

[fiatdaft]

Pics?

 

And i take it you mean vinyl instead of leather seats?

[nigel bickle]

Not many buyers for this - although there will be plenty of shouters.

 

Without seeing pics -I'd agree with Billy. £400

I am in Dunstable.

 

Struggling to post a pic. I have a .JPG file - please excuse my ignorance!

I'd say £450 with a fresh MOT.

 

They're still ten-a-penny in Eastern Yoorope, and to give the things their due, they don't seem to die.

[d4ry1]

Thanks Craig

 

 

Try this...

Worth every penny with the AS colour scheme etc...

Indeed! That's stunning. In a truly dreadful, autoshite way of course.

[d4ry1]

Thanks guys!

 

I'll post some more pics once the rain has stopped.

 

Will listen to sensible offers as I need it off the drive.

That's great! I love the colour scheme in a shite kind of way. what age is it?

[d4ry1]

D reg. 1987.

[Lankytim]

That's lovely! I remember passing one up for £60 about 10 years ago- it was mint! It ended up scrapped unfortunately. PM sent...

[garycox]

Wow! I love this, if only I had some off street parking so I could store it untaxed for a bit!

[HMC]

I'd imagine thered be quite a few interested parties on this forum, particularly with the lack of corrosion, and nice history, not forgetting the website colour scheme. Great!!

[Wilko220]

I like this a lot. Not sure it would stand up to too many years of exterior storage though, alas

[Alpus]

What a beauty. Hard to get parts for it though I would imagine.

[SambaS]

I have no trouble with the Polonez - parts wise.

Not at all! Join the FSO Polonez group on Facebook and meet a whole bunch of fellow Autoshiters! If you have a contact in Poland you can get almost anything (eventually, and at what cost...) except, I would imagine, RHD-specific stuff. I'm inclined to agree with the guesstimates posted so far about price, 400-ish for a car that needs recommissioning isn't out of order. It looks sound (but who can tell from a photo!) so I think a few of us would take a chance. Many thanks for thinking of us first!

I might be getting a R14 (WE'LL SEE)tomorrow, so I think the main problem will be finding parts. But as you say, if you can find parts for an Fso Polonez then maybe I won't be so unlucky after all. It could mean I just go to France very often.

Tell me more! When was it first registered? Pre 1989 ones are supposed to drink 4 star & don't like unleaded but, hey? FSH till 1989? Blimey, the documents would be interesting! I'm in north London & don't need much of an excuse to whizz up the M1 to take a look. I had an "E" reg saloon but always hankered after an estate. PM me if you'd be happy for me to take a look-I'd love to!

 

You're in safe company here!

[RedSparrow]

This looks HOT. Do get some more pictures up if you can.

Welcome btw!

[eddyramrod]

I should probably leave this here now...

[warren t claim]

Are these as shit to drive as I'd expect them to be? I've only driven FSOs around an auction ring, never on the road.

[eddyramrod]

If you've driven a Lada Riva you're in the right ballpark. Whether it's fun or shit depends on how it's been looked after, and the conditions around you. One of the drives I most enjoyed, my whole life, was in a 1985 Riva in 1993. Across county on a bank holiday, A49 to Crewe.
