1971 Fiat 124 Sport Coupe

• New period-correct alloy wheels and Pirelli tyres fitted
• Spare set of as-new 7x13 Cromodora alloys included
• Recently serviced with new battery, starter, and alternator

The Appeal

The Fiat 124 Sport Coupe is one of the most elegant designs to emerge from the much-celebrated Fiat-Pininfarina partnership. With its twin-cam engine, five-speed gearbox, and crisp coupe lines, these diminutive cars offered genuine sporting credentials in an accessible, stylish package - the best of true Italian magic. As with many Italian cars of its era, finding one today that hasn't succumbed to corrosion or been heavily modified is increasingly rare.

This example is presented as an unmodified, factory-standard car, loaded with originality. A little work would bring it to a fine standard, but it's equally usable as is - a quintessentially 70s classic that's loaded with character.
