The Appeal
Of the many colours available for the classic Fiat 500, vibrant and stylish Positano Yellow is surely one of the best. This 500 ‘Lusso’ was restored in the colour in 2022 as part of a comprehensive renovation that included the mechanicals.
The vendor acquired the car shortly after completion, intending to use it for an Italian-themed business venture. It has seen little road use since, being dry stored in a heated garage when not in use.
With fresh MOT and some neat features like the rear luggage rack, this is a really pretty example of the classic Italian city car.
