    This is my 7th 128 coupé or 3P. I bought it from a carpenter who had used queer ideas in fixing a car. Now it is in good hobby racing balance and it is nice to drive around the track with slick tyres. The 128 Sport Coupé SL 1300 is very nice to drive. I had a Lancia Beta Coupé which was slightly better in handling but I really like to drive my Coupé. I have a Fiat Uno for everyday traffic but it is real freedom to sit low in a Coupé and let the engine sing.
