The Appeal
In standard form, the Fiat/Seat 600 E is a humble city car known for its affordability, compact dimensions and characterful design. This particular example, however, has been transformed into a competition-ready classic, making it far more special than a standard model. Prepared for classic racing events, this 1972 600 E has participated in prestigious events, including the 24 Hours of Zolder and Spa Classic.
This car's competition specification is impressive, featuring a powerful 1050cc engine from an Autobianchi A112 Abarth engine producing 70hp, sports seats, and a reinforced chassis. Dry-stored in a warehouse, this race-prepared classic offers an accessible yet competitive entry into prestigious historic motorsport events.
