Description

Is this the cutest car available, bar none?! Here we have a 1972 Fiat 500 F, Very rare as a UK supplied car from new in Right Hand Drive! This little car is finished in a lovely period Grey with Red Interior. It has been fully restored and is in a beautiful condition!

Replacement for FIAT's much-loved 500 'Topolino', the Nuova 500 debuted in 1957. A radical departure from its predecessor's essentially pre-war design, FIAT's new baby featured unitary construction, an opening fabric roof and all-independent suspension while carrying its engine at the rear. The 479cc power unit was an air-cooled overhead-valve twin and the gearbox a four-speeder. The basic 500's austerity was not well received, prompting the introduction of a revised and better equipped version endowed with refinements such as wind-down windows, upholstered rear seat, column-mounted switchgear stalks and hubcaps. Introduced in 1960, the 500D used the 499. 5cc engine of the 500 Sport in de-tuned form. In 1965 it was superseded by the 500F, the latter's altered bodywork incorporating front-hinged doors and a shortened sunroof, while mechanical improvements included a strengthened transmission. Maximum power increased to 22bhp and the top speed to within a whisker of 60mph.

Our car was sold new in the UK on the 1st August 1972 and is one of the last 500 F's made, she has only had 6 owners in its 52 years on the planet. We have a large folder with hundreds of invoices on file. The history is complete and comprehensive for the last 16 years but nothing from the cars early life unfortunately. It is in a lovely original condition and has since been totally restored and is now lovely in every respect. The Grigio over Red colour scheme is perfect and there is no aspect of the car that hasn't been attended to in recent years. It would take many hours to go through all the invoices on file! All in all a lovely little 500, the best model and the best specification! You will totally fall in love with this little car!

There are 50 photos, a walk-around video and more info on - details above.
