1973 Fiat 124 Sport review from Australia and New Zealand
"Excellent Value for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the front brake calipers.
Also had the radiator reconditioned.
New brake booster has also been fitted.
At 98000 miles the rear differential started to make some noise and had to be reconditioned.
General comments?
The Fiat 124 Sport has exceptional styling for a car that was designed in house by Fiat.
The interior design provides excellent viewing from every angle and the dashboard provides clear information with a very sporty design.
The exhaust note is like music to your ears.
The handling is great and the four wheel disk brakes work well.
