The Appeal
The Fiat 500 was the right car at the right time. Italy was going through a huge economic boom, and was now eagerly heading out onto the road. With compact proportions, simple mechanics and easy-going design at its core, it was enormously accessible and just outright appealing. The cute little compact is now almost synonymous with Italy, and one of the most popular, recognisable classics of all time.
This particular 1971 example has been thoughtfully maintained and enhanced to ensure reliable everyday usability while preserving its classic character. The current owner has invested in comprehensive mechanical refurbishment, addressing everything from the fuel system to the brakes, along with a push-start button and a full alarm system. It's now ready and waiting for its lucky new owner.
