Fiat, Turin, Italy.  The 128 range lasted from 1969 to 1985 and was European Car of the Year in 1970. It was a front wheel drive, front engined small car that had many variants and set a trend many were to follow.  The 128 3P was produced from 1975 to 1979 and was a 3 door coupé that replaced the sports coupé.  There were both 1.2L and 1.3L variants.  They were not very fast with a 0-60mph time of around 15 seconds and a top speed of a little over 80mph in unmodified form.  Lots of course were raced in minor races and occasionally the European Touring Car Championship.
