The Appeal

Tiny in stature but enormous in character, few cars capture the spirit of post-war Italy quite like the Fiat 500. The 500 remains one of the most recognisable cars in history, thanks to its diminutive size, lively character and simple, air-cooled mechanics. It quickly became synonymous with post-war Continental Europe, and the arrival of the Lusso brought in an improved trim for the more discerning motorist.

This particular example has been comprehensively restored and has been garage-kept throughout its life, which has clearly helped preserve its condition. Finished in the Fiat 500's near-quintessential Rosso Red, over a Black interior, the vendor states it is in very good condition both cosmetically and mechanically. The interior has been refreshed with new seats and carpet, and a new battery has been fitted. The vendor reports that the driving experience is pleasant and that the car is ready to be enjoyed straight away, with its Revisione valid until September 2028.

Thanks for your previous reply. It seems to me that Italian regulations require the vehicle to be deregistered for export (radiazione per esportazione) before the vehicle leaves Italy. Do you handle this formality which requires temporary registration plates and the provision of export documents? Thanks in advance.

Alright, no problem, I'll fit the seatbelts

Hello, I notice that this vehicle, although from 1971, isn't equipped with seatbelts; it therefore cannot be driven in France as they're mandatory for vehicles after the end of 1967. Are you planning to fit them? Thanks in advance.
