Restored to original specifications several years ago
Garage-kept since restoration
Dark blue livery with red vinyl interior
Believed to be mechanically standard throughout
Italian technical inspection (revisione) valid until March 2028
The Appeal
The Fiat 500L - the 'Lusso' variant of Fiat's beloved city car - offered a touch of refinement over the standard 500, with upgraded trim and additional creature comforts while maintaining its simple, straightforward character. Today, these charming machines remain hugely sought after - a real pop-culture icon of the Italian Economic Miracle.
This 1970 example wears a dark blue livery with a red vinyl interior, both of which suit the spirited, quietly elegant 500 to the ground. It's believed to be mechanically standard, retaining its 499cc engine. It passed its Italian technical inspection just days ago, with validity through to March 2028, and is reported to be a fine, capable car. WhatsApp Image 2026-04-03 at 16.14.14.jpeg3.2 MB
