Re: hello from Bursa/TURKEY
Welcome, that is a neat car, but unfortunately this forum is devoted to the Spider. You may share the same engine as the Spider, in which case there is a lot of great information here, and you will find plenty of friendly and helpful people.

Re: hello from Bursa/TURKEY
Hello and Welcome. Not many 124 sedans have survived here in the USA. In the 1960's, they were the only Fiat model available here with an automatic transmission, but by the 1970's and 80's, Fiat quality problems here doomed the sedans. The pretty Spider kept the brand alive, but even the excellent 131 Mirafiori/Brava was unable to prevent the decline and ultimate withdrawal from the US market.
Perhaps there are excellent sources for parts and service of the 124-platform cars in Turkey. My only contact in your part of the world is in Serbia. djape1997@hotmail.com He owns and runs a garage that specializes in restoring Fiats, Polskis and Ladas. 5 employees, all the work in house, apart from spraying the cars. 20+ years experience on rear wheel driven models. New and salvage parts. Typically ships from Athens. He posts here occasionally.
