FIAT 130 COUPE

2-door 4-seater sports coupé.

Magnificent large coupé by Pininfarina on basis of uninspiring 130 saloon's floorpan and all running gear. Unlike saloon, sold only with larger V6 engine and higher proportion with ZF manual 'box. Heavy (3530lbs unladen) but fast (116mph), with good road manners and extreme elegance. By Pininfarina, at the same time as they produced the Rolls-Royce Camargue - any doubts about which shape is best? Four-door saloon and hatch/estate types were shown but not produced - what a pity.
