Retains its original registration plate and documents
Reported to be largely original throughout, having always been stored under cover
Sound underbody reported
The Appeal
The Fiat 500 F is arguably the most iconic iteration of Dante Giacosa's beloved city car. Produced from 1965 to 1972, the "F" series refined the formula with front-hinged doors and improved interior appointments, and it remains the quintessential Nuova 500 for many enthusiasts. In Acquamarina, one of the more distinctive period colours, this 1968 example cuts a charming figure.
Remarkably, this 500 F has remained with a single registered keeper throughout its life and comes accompanied by its original documents and registration plate. The vendor reports it was driven regularly until a few years ago and has been stored under cover for its entire life, resulting in what is described as a well-preserved, largely original condition. The underbody is reported to be sound, and the engine has recently been checked over with the brakes redone. The upholstery has been re-trimmed using the "L" specification fabric, and some minor touch-ups to the bodywork are noted. Having recently passed its Italian roadworthiness inspection, this single-keeper 500 F presents an opportunity for those seeking an honest example with genuine provenance.20260306_140702.jpg3.73 MB
