    Fiat Cinquecento?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,499 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    we have a winner!

    The used a modified 700cc 126p engine mounted longitudinally (running backwards) as well as the transverse mounted 900 and 1100cc engines as used in the Seicento.

    Michael Schumacher's first car was a Cinquecento, he later put his name to a Seicento special edition.

    That's SO disappointing!

    I thought of the 126 first, and a little digging around on Wikipedia revealed the correct answer. :D

    Ok, what am I thinking of?

    -5 door hatchback (or van)
    -Longitudional engine with gearbox mounted ahead of it
    -8 million or so produced

    VW Transporter/microbus?

    most of them are stock its just a website that imports them from japan directly for you. The one epm posted is a sweet one was just showing more ones you can import yourself.:cool:
    But most of those are very dear? 81k dollars for a 95 one?
    Besides, nothing quite like knowing a cars history first hand.
