Here it is, the Fiat 127, the unfortunately not very
known predecessor of the Uno. Originally at that time I wanted to buy a
Uno, that means really I just wanted to buy a car cheap to maintain without
preferences for any make. But because at the time the prices for used cars
were rather high and my financial power rather limited the only option
were Fiats and Japanese cars. Since the Japanese change the models too
often resulting in poor spare parts supply, the decision was made for Fiat.
And now before finding a suitable Uno I encountered this 127 with only
32000 kilometres and an equipmente comparable to the Unos. And because
I found and still find the design of the 127 more attractive than that
of the Uno, i bought it at once.
