    A Shifty - the Fiat 127-engined thing.

    I like the fact that there's a close up of the rear brake, but not the
    gear lever on the other side. This is because the gearchange kept the
    four-speed H-pattern of the original Fiat, and so you had to manoeuvre
    that with your left foot.

    Still a pigging horrible bike to look at, as well.

    That's been on ebay four or five times (says the bloke who's got a
    search set up for odd Italian stuff)

    Always the same seller, or people who've bought it, realised they've
    made a dreadful mistake, and swiftly passed it on?

    I'd suggest it's worth £2k tops.

    That I haven't checked, but ISTR that the photos look the same, so it's
    probably the same seller.
    .... which may go a long way to explaining why it may well be the same
    seller.

    It looks a bit less bodgy than an Austel.

    Erm. I actually quite like it.

    I need help.
