The Attractions
Are there any cars more iconic than the little Fiat 500? We doubt it. These tiny, frugal cars take us back to the golden age of the Italian economy, when it was the 500 that managed to make even Italians less interested in innovation become motorists for the first time. Affordable, easy to maintain and full of character, the 500 was a great success, so much so that a more carefully finished variant, the 'L' or 'Lusso', was introduced a few years later.
This Fiat, very attractive in its light blue colour (colour code 415), is an excellent example of the 500 'Lusso', and has only had one previous owner since new. It has been recently tuned for road use, and is offered with overhaul valid until 2025.
