The Country more nearest to South-Africa where were assembled CKD-Fiat cars was Zambia;being that in South Africa were assembled only 124,125,128,132,believe that was probably a Zambian-assembled Regata by Livingstone Motors Ltd.(they would assembly also 131)

It appears to be left hand drive, going by the windscreen wipers. Zambia drives on the left, so cars assembled there would be right hand drive.

This is where discovering the website of a South African action vehicle company pays off, because they own this car. :)

It's definitely left hand drive, and they list it as a 'Fiat Mistral'.

Not made for South Africa, because it's left hand drive.

But made for South Africa, because it has a different name ;)

The name listed by the company (now defunct/taken over) was probably wrong. IIRC they had a Ford Mondeo in their list of American cars. :)

There is another ZA website with "Fiat Mistral": http://www.iprops.co.za/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=202
but it may be the same source? :D
also http://cybercapetown.com/Exoticar/european_sedans.php but again it is cars for hire :think:
As there does not seem to be other reliable source, it is probably an error as you suggest it.

Fiats were not sold in South Africa at the time the Regatta was produced. Any Regatta/Mistral would have been privately imported.
