someone here did a hefty trips hvnt you mariusz? My mom told me how she with 6 people in total made like 7h journey to Berlin from Posnan. A wild thing.
I can vouch for that statement. 8 of us, granted very cramped and without front passenger seat but going on for 20 km with no complaints or injuries. Ahh the good old days.
My dad owned 126PGL '95. I managed to replace complete clutch all on my own while I was only 14yo. It was very easy to extract whole engine and do all maintenance. They call this car Peglica in Serbia, which mean tiny laundry iron 🤣
hearing Top Gears Chris Evans just hurts my ears, im so glad the he already left and GT is coming so soon :) we used to have a Fiat 126 its a fun little car, it is one of my dreams that i custom build one
Sorry for the lady, this is not an 126 Abarth. With 600 cc it has not even an 126 Abarth engine. It has not even Abarth paint which is actually FIAT 124 red orange. No. Only two prototipo's were made. One for Italy, one for Poland. Engine size ran up to at least 770 cc and/higher.
I learnt how to drive in one at about age 12. The previous owner had driven it for the uk (north) to Berlin and back to witness the wall coming down, he had taken out the passenger seat so he could (sort of) sleep in it on his journey. It was almost dead, so it ended up as my toy with my bikes. My dad was into motorbikes, mum cars. She had an xr3i at the time, and can't recall what bike dad had then, he had many. I think my bike at the time was an italjet. Maybe? Cool car. It wasn't then but is now.
If Mercedes can make a tiny little pocket with 21st Century safety features (Smart car ) why couldn't Fiat reinvent the 126 and the 500 using the original shell ?
Sorry, my english is not very good.. I'm building a replica of the sports car Fiat 126p: - Carburetor Kunicki Motorsport - Sports suspension - Half of the new parts.. Soon new films finished car.. Engine power about 30-32 HP.. Car after the repair in August will be for sale for Euro 2900
@@AB-ng7zc I've heard a Fiat Fire engine could be transplanted in the 126 engine bay, it's 1100cc. I'm thinking about buying one with similar power goals in mind, so I'd love to hear more of your process.
+ADAM BUCZAK lol yeah, I agree! And it instantly lost value from being owned by that ginger prick Didn't know there were any abarths made but 2 isn't a very big production run so i assume they were concepts?

Reportedly, this car has high exhaust emission. There's a guy from London who owns one of these beauties and says that it costs him about £20 pounds a day for the congestion charge.
my parents had them.... yes them .. because they kept overheating after being driven about 6 months and most of the time my parents had them my dad was trying to just fix them.
Excellent video, but the background music was a bit too loud for us to appreciate the row the engine makes - even when it isn't the Abarth engine! LOVED the colour, so perhaps that's just a man thing?
It is a Meme in Poland. Yet in England people like it. I am confused but yet. That Box on weels is small, ligth and you can yourself turn it back on its wheels. you can try and will be able to do it. Well, Its peoples car after all.
KAM: Easy: remove the front seats and sit on the rear seat. One of my friend had it, and he was slightly over 200 cm tall. Fun fact, the 126 had the soft top and when open, my friend drove it with his head stuck out of the open roof, with von Richtofen googles, causing almost a riot in the school, for histerical hilarity
Jesus Christ, you have enough room don’t fucking whine, “as you can see there is VERY little space here for ME.” In my years of owning a car I owned a Suzuki Swift, the older 2004 model, and trust me, that had less space in it than that thing, for refrence, with the seat all the way back your knees still sat highee that the seat, but I didn’t whine and complain did I? Afterall, the A/C was like a freezer and you’d probably freeze if you had it on for too long.
In Poland called "tiny" or "small one" ;) I did my driving license on that
Same here. My first car.
not much room? lol You haven't seen much in your life... it can handle between 8 grownups inside lol
yea 6 in the back lol

I had a Blue one of these back in 1995 (not Abarth) and absolutely LOVED it!

2 years but fuck it, in Poland is call "Maluch" which mean a tiny one
Looks very nice and classic. Greetings from Poland.
Ten jest z Włoch.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, you can find a lot of this Fiat. We call him Peglica.
Greetings from Bosina and Herzegovina.
Not 126. 126p. :)
what does peglica mean? i'm italian, they are quite rare now but this car has a special place in the heart of many italians
Nothin', it's the Balkan name for this Fiat. :)
it mean "the iron" from Pegla

The Abarth had up to 50 bhp.
24 bhp is absolutely standard.
abarth never built fiat 126 only giannni was selling 3 version of modified 126 650 30 hp 700 cc 34 hp and 800 cc 36 hp
Proudly made in People`s Republic of Poland !
It was made in Italy... It's a 126, not a 126p.
At seat belt what an example you give!
Dream car💗
Sorry, my english is not very good..

Soon new films finished car..

Looking to buy this. But prices are starting to raise.
Who cares if Chris Evans owned it
I'm building one now my goal is 70 bhp
Adam Buczak hows it going?
how is it going well not good
engine block and fly wheel cant take any big increase

hmmm. There was never a fiat 126 abarth so i don't know what 'abarth spec' means
also Chris Evans is a nobhead

yes they did, they made even a giannini one
she even said you put a 600 cc engine but she didnt know that this engine is the stock one he only put the exhaust
did you start it without the choke??? (my eyes hurt bc i own a collection of them)
My first car whot I bought for first pay😃
I love it
Be nice to have some specs on performance
Did you get pulled over for the illegal number plates?
Is it a car that is still suitable for the modern times in terms of emissions and replacement items etc?
Interested too
@@p_roduct9211 it's like I fell in love with this car and badly want one as my first car ever

Its Tom Hanks daily drive ;)
Can you do a wheelie with that? If you put a R1 engine for example?
Excellent video, but the background music was a bit too loud for us to appreciate the row the engine makes - even when it isn't the Abarth engine! LOVED the colour, so perhaps that's just a man thing?
“Porsh Continental Orange” 🤔

Who the fuck is Chris Evans? From top gear? WTF?

To włoska wesja
Nie jest i nigdy nie był. Produkcja na licencji, to nie to samo co stworzenie auta....
Polskiego to ty miałeś Poloneza.
126p był produkowany na licencji.
Na filmiku jest 126 - prawilna włoska wersja.
Ewww... Chris Evans! 🤢🤮
