#Cooper cs4 tires are a nightmare professional#
The front seats could certainly benefit from a professional retrim and the aftermarket sunroofs leaves me a bit uneasy, as they can often leak. The color here is also one that doesn’t seem dated.

This one is a survivor, however, and is thankfully equipped with the manual gearbox to get the most out of the twin cam, four cylinder engine.

A decided square, three box design, the Brava was offered in four-door, estate and a two-door coupe variant, like the one we see here for sale in Washington state. Before Fiat left the US market in the early 1980s though, their larger offering was a bit more car like than crossover, the 131 which was later renamed the Brava. While sales got off to a slower start than expected, there has been enough of a warm reception for the company to release a second model, the 500L, aimed at those seeking a bit larger of a package than the 500. It’s going on almost two years since Fiat reentered the US new car market. Even more so than the silver two-door featured last week, this has to be the best 131/Brava I have seen for sale in the US in the past several years. These Fiats aren't exactly the most collectable of valued Italian cars, so I would suspect swapping in a 5-speed manual gearbox wouldn't affect the value all that much. I should know, as my mother owned a 1978 131S coupe with this very transmission when I was a young kid. While this sedan variant has covered a lot less miles over the years, the GM sourced 3-speed automatic will sap a lot of the fun out of the driving experience. Click to view listingĬompared to the two door Brava we featured last week, this 131S has some pluses and minuses. It will be sold with a clear title and it will be sold as-is, where-is. This FIAT has 4 matching brand new tires that are mounted on good straight rims. They have took extra care to keep the original design. Our upholstery shop has installed brand new vinyl seats. Vinyl seats, carpet floor and glass are all in great shape. The paint looks original with absolutely no rust anywhere on the car. The exterior is in excellent shape for a 1975. There is no evidence of any electrical problems. Suspension is in excellent shape, car tracks nice and straight. Automatic transmission feels perfect, shifts without any problems, without delay, and without noise. Our mechanics performed basic tune-up on this car and an oil change. Engine is in good shape, does not smoke, does not leak, nice and quiet. This ONE OWNER, ARIZONA BEAUTY looks almost as good as when it came from the factory in 1975.

Well, apparently these Fiats are multiplying, because here comes an early sedan variant for sale in New York in a decidedly seventies color. We featured a 1979 Fiat Brava last week and I thought to myself, my oh my, finding a 131/Brava in this shape is a near impossible task these days.
