That win formed part of Fiat's third and final FIA World Rally Championship Manufacturers' title that season. Werk83 replicates the car in \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e, capturing the red, white and green livery and the bank of auxiliary driving lamps that were essential equipment on the Monte's night stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"fiat-131-abarth-group4\"\u003eThe Fiat 131 Abarth: Group 4's Benchmark\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHomologated for Group 4 rally competition from 1976, the 131 Abarth used the standard 131 Mirafiori saloon body as its outer shell while packing a Lampredi-derived 2.0-litre twin-cam four-cylinder with twin Weber carburettors. The platform proved exceptionally competitive, delivering FIA World Rally Championship Manufacturers' titles in 1977, 1978 and 1980 and establishing the car as one of the defining WRC machines of the late 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"rohrl-monte-carlo-1980\"\u003eRöhrl, Geistdörfer and the Night Stages\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1980 Rallye Monte-Carlo gave Walter Röhrl his first victory at the event and was the opening round of the 1980 World Rally Championship season. Running as car No. 10 in Team Fiat Italia colours, Röhrl and his long-time co-driver Christian Geistdörfer — who shared both of Röhrl's WRC title victories in 1980 and 1982 — negotiated the mixed-surface stages and demanding night sections to take the overall win. The Night Version designation reflects the period practice of mounting supplementary forward-facing driving lamps to illuminate the unlit alpine roads, a hallmark visual of WRC machinery from this era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"werk83-118-diecast-model\"\u003eWerk83's 1:18 Interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWerk83 is a specialist producer known for high-detail \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e rally and racing replicas. This release recreates the winning No. 10 car in its exact Monte Carlo 1980 Night Version specification, including the auxiliary lamp array on the front of the car — a detail that distinguishes it visually from any standard-configuration version of the 131 Abarth. The red, white and green Team Fiat Italia livery with Fiat and Abarth branding is faithfully rendered.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WERK83","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56858420543872,"sku":"W18006001","price":74.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-w18006001-front34-v2_6bf4d2fd-a825-4020-9779-d20e2de77ce9.jpg?v=1793726833","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/de\/products\/fiat-131-abarth-team-fiat-italia-night-v-w18006001","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
