Title: Quite a rare beast ?? Series 1.5 Coupé Post by: simonandjuliet on 09 March, 2020, 07:54:05 PM Spotted for sale on LeBonCoin here in France, what looks to be a real cross-over
It has low headlights, S1 grill, sidelights, dash, oil cooler , washer bottle, rocker cover etc etc but has a 5 speed 'box, servo (non remote) , S2 wheels, door mirror and so on Declared as registered in March 1970 I assume it's real, but who knows ? No relation to seller etc Asking 16K euros https://www.leboncoin.fr/voitures/1698658023.htm/ (https://www.leboncoin.fr/voitures/1698658023.htm/) Title: Re: Quite a rare beast ??

Nice colour in the first picture.

Nice colour in the first picture. Many years ago Martin Cliffe told me when went to have the carburettors sorted out on my 1.3 Rallye Coupe, that he though the 4 speed gearbox was the nicest of the gearboxes. Must admit I've never driven a 5 speed Fulvia, but I thought the 4 speed with the long lever was a lovely gearbox, besides with a 5 speed you can no longer easily get in or out either side, the flat floor was worth having.

I know there were series 1.5 berlinas which had them. Easier/cheaper to rebuilt...
