On the train?  I cannot fathom a reason why one would pass through Watlington in a car...

I passed through on the way to visit a client at HMP Huntercombe.

There hasn't been a train to or from Watlington since about 1959. This is all that's left of the oul station, about a mile outside Watlington itself:

What a fine design on this Fiat, it just sits there majestically. This was back when Fiat did things right...   But that's enough about the Multipla.

Nice! That steering wheel cover needs to be launched in the bin, and replaced with nice pair of driving gloves.

Can’t remember the last time I saw a smart, unmolested RX7.  Lovely.

£1k but still counting, wonder what these go for?

About £7k gets a very nice one. 12A engine (quite a few ended up in Ro80s) will last, with regular oil and filter changes.

Thanks for the photos; I love anything to do with closed lines, but the Volvo 164 is at Watlington in Norfolk, rather than the one in Oxfordshire!  The Norfolk Watlington still very much has a station (I went through it last week), but sadly no longer is a junction for the line from Wisbech.

Just a manual gearbox and 2.9 engine away from perfection ?

As for that Fiat 130. What a motor car - there's a good video about them in the Youtube thread that will make you want one even more.

So far so ordinary.  But wait...

Is that orifice missing some late 80s housebrick-sized telephonic techno-wonder?

That mini comtesse is very expensive - some recently dragged over from France by the microcar lads up north were less than £2k.

That blue was a popular choice on the Fiat 130.  Can you imagine how close I am to phoning him up and offering a Cadillac?

Went to look at this today. Chassis in great condition. The interior dirty but would clean up no problem.  Could not get the engine to turn over so possibly seized with sitting. Still wanted it but put my bid in too early and was out bid. I want one even more now.

In you I've found a story I want to keep hearing.
In you I see all colours
not just black or white.
In you I find a reason and hope for all dreamers

You are my fill
you're my supply of love and pride.

That's what my heart yearns for now

Look at this honey in the parts section!

I think @Mr_Bo11ox definitely needs another broken Italian car in his life right now.  I know it's not a Sportwagon, but still.
