Did you know the FIAT 126 had two differently-shaped taillight designs (several different designs, but two different shapes) in the course of it’s production run? :O

You’re welcome! :P

I did not.
And I’ve lived most of my life in Poland. Shiet. :<

The odd-shaped ones with the reverse lights built-in were far less common than the amber/red design. I think the odd-shaped ones were only around in the 80's and you could find them on Italian-built 126s as well. Don’t think as many 126ps had them.

You’re welcome! If it ever comes up at your local trivia night, you’ll be all like “RallyDarkstrike taught me this!!!” :P

I can’t recall ever seeing the ones with reversing lights built in, but then 126s haven’t been around for a long time unless you’re in Poland.

Makes sense for why I’ve never seen them, thanks. They’re honestly cooler looking than the normal ones. Wonder if one could flip them...

No idea if you could flip them! They look pretty symmetrical, so maybe?
