Fiat X1/9 Dallara

Fiat X1/9 was another tight low capacity euro car. It was almost copied to death by toyota's MR2.

I loved these small cars with rally roots. The Dallara version was meant for the smaller class of Group 5 DRM. 690 kg! These pumped versions are awesome. Mainly used in hillclimb.

Influenced by the Arbarth version, I tried to buy a stock one at one stage, but simply, it was old and crap. Roof leaked like a waterfall.
