A few months ago I returned to Fulvia ownership after a long break of about 16 years. Before that I had several Fulvias from when I was in my teens onwards. My aim with this car is to enjoy it and steadily improve it. It is incredibly original structurally though in a non-standard colour.

I bought it in the US and it has just been registered. I think it came from the Netherlands so if anyone recognises it, that would be interesting.

I will post a picture or two when I figure out how to do so (large files).
Thanks.

Thats a nice looking example Jai. Not overmanicured or spruced up and from the outside, it looks very original.

And the colour is to my eyes very nice indeed, unshowy but smart, and correct enough for the period I would think. Congratulations.

Thanks all. Yes, the previous owner was from the Chicago area, or GG did you know someone who had it before then?
I quite like the grey, pretty understated. I like red less these days in spite of having three red cars!

Twenty-three years ago you had a memorable white 1600HF, seen in this photo at the North Weald Sprint. The Fanalone looks gorgeous!

Thanks Colin that is a nice memory. I enjoyed that car very much, and raced it as you will recall for several years.
I am ducking the question of whether I have aged by 23 years since that photo!
