We (my family) had two of these. The latter clocked 465,000kms. Oil seal failed so for about 18months we used to it up with cheapo oil each week. Undersealed the car really nicely!!
Otherwise a very comfortable car - my dad just couldn't get rid of it even once they had it's brand new replacement and the one after that!

I'vew heard about the ami super engine going in and also BMW flat twin motorbike engine but the GSA engine is something else. Brilliant - a real sleeper.

Fantastic, the 250's are really nice. My father is in the middle of restoring a 1958 2cvAZ - bit of a nut and bolt one. New chassis etc progress is very slow!

Looks good and no sunroof either. A nice example that still has an 8v.

Good move on swapping the subframe - for those who don't know the CTI doesn't use the same set up as the GTI.
Nice.

Ah sorry I didn't realise the difference between the LN and LNA. Air cooled is the way forward with this, a fab sound; my father has a 425cc 1958 2CVAZ - brilliant under revs!

Brilliant - I take it you're going for the Abarth look. Are you opting for the 1108 for cost/keeping with Fiat reason? I only ask as a Fireblade engine would be lovely in there.

My ZX is now being broken into a 306 dTurbo in fact. If you want any bits let me know but all susp and engine is being used. Thanks, but brother and car are located in Normandy in France. Funnily enough he bought a 306TD and several bits have made the transfer including the rear beam! Engine is sitting in a garage somewhere at my folks place, complete with ancilleries still attached. Obviously it's in the way and he left home a couple of years back!

sh*****************************t! hope he was alright! A bit shaken but learn't not to take those bends at that speed again. Think he was more gutted that he borrowed the money for the car and then watched it in a corner of the drive for 3 years; until we angle grinded into quarters and took it to the dump! I think the engine is in a garage somewhere at my folks.
