    Been listed on local ebay three times now - receiving not one single bid

    Fiat 850 Sport coupe 1969 - eBay 1940 - 1970, Collector Cars, Cars, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 04-Aug-08 10:40:32 AEST)

    Henk (& others) I'm curious how this would compare against approx prices in Europe?

    prices in Europe for goods ones would be between 3-4000 Euros, so this is comparable price.

    How about a Peugeot 406 V6 or Turbo-diesel instead of the Citroen? Not sure the prices however.
    I assume you're willing to forgive the Citroen its FWD layout for the ride qualities it should offer?

    Yes and mate I see where you're coming from with the Peugeot .. but they share a Citroen platform and lack the teriffic exploding suspension - and sporting nature - and hold their value much better (too much to tempt me). Auto-only Renault Laguna's 'intelligent' auto gearbox is dumb-as, reputedly a nightmare. Apparently the Citroen suspension cure is somewhere under $1k, and you know how lousy their resale is

    I'll probably end up sticking with what I've got, but you know the feeling when 'the itch for change' hits you

    The little Fiat interested me but verging on too much $$, despite seeming market undervalue of a mini-Ferrari. I was even looking at a Renault 10 for gawd sake!
