Fun fact! The FIAT 126p has vents in the doors for extra ventilation! :)

Also, size comparison for reference! :P

This has been your obligatory FIAT 126 post.

the 126 is high up on my list of “want to do silly things with”

i.e engine swap, time trial, autotest car and such

Same! It’s hilarious that almost two 126s will fit in the length of that Ferrari!

You guys actually had the 126 sold there new as the FSM Niki!

126 engine swaps are pretty insane...I’ll be leaving mine mostly stock when I import it! Maybe a few tweaks to the stock engine and aftermarket rims, but who knows! :)

Did you know of the Niki before? I don’t know how popular they ever were, but they were just Polish-built RHD export versions of the 126p! :)

I was not aware of it at all.
