The Appeal
Introduced in 1955 as a natural evolution of the Fiat 500 Topolino, the 600 was hardly a reinvention of the company’s winning formula for small cars with easy-to-handle engines. These were smart, compact little 2-door saloons that set up the future blueprint for the company’s success, with their friendly little profiles creating a bit of a pop-culture icon.
First registered in 1964, this 600D features a slightly more powerful 767cc Tipo 100 engine, and has picked up an ASI certificate to prove its veracity to factory specifications.
