Description
KEY FACTS
- A charming and iconic classic city car, this Fiat 500 has been subject to a colour change and an interior retrim.
- It is powered by a characterful 499cc air-cooled two-cylinder engine, which sends its power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission.
- First registered with the DVLA in August 1970, this example has had four registered keepers.
- The odometer shows 53,394 km, though this is not warranted.
EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES
- This Fiat 500 is noted to have originally been painted in white but has since been refinished in Giallo Positano, over a re-trimmed Nero vinyl interior.
- The car rides on 12-inch steel wheels with chrome hubcaps, and Datex Classic tyres.
- Equipment includes a folding fabric sunroof, and heating and ventilation controls.
- The car comes with its V5C, proof of prior ownership from 2000 to 2025, and one set of keys.
CONDITION
- Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition.
- Specific notes from the seller include: there are some very small imperfections and overspray on the paintwork. The car was originally white although has been resprayed as part of a restoration at some point in its life. The engine is likely to have been rebuilt.
- The vehicle is exempt from mandatory MOT testing due to its age.
