Description
Launched in the 1950s, the Fiat 500 was Italy’s take on the city car. It occupied an impossibly small footprint, yet thanks to clever design and an engine in back, it could seat four and transport a little bit of strategically packed luggage, too. Powered by a two-cylinder air-cooled engine, it was a characterful, cheerful little car to drive. It was never going to win any land speed records, as it only had about 25bhp, but that wasn’t the point. It was cheap, cheerful, reliable transport for the masses. And thanks to its diminutive stature, it was perfect for the tight streets of Italy. The engine has been upgraded to a 700 cc kit from fiat 500 sport in italy, meaning it has a bit more grunt. Balanced and ported, Fiat 500 F L complete piston liner kit NANNI for up grading engine (700 CC 45 HP).
