1971 Fiat 500L
Vendor supplied images
Highlights
- 499cc I2 engine with 4-speed manual transmission
- Mint green paintwork with black sunroof and interior
- Italian registration
The Appeal
One of the most famous cars to roll out of Italy, the 500’s cute, squat shape and sheer simplicity made them a practical, pretty little motor for any member of the public. They were surprisingly practical cars, perfect for the increasingly cluttered city streets, and easy to work on. It’s perhaps little wonder that nearly four million units were sold.
This example is an eminently drivable one, with a stylish mint green colour scheme, contrasted with a black Lusso interior trim and sunroof.
The History and Paperwork
- Sadly we know very little about the history of this car
- Built in 1971
- We understand this car to be an Italian market example
- It still carries an Italian registration
- Currently indicates 14,530km on a five-figure odometer
- We can’t verify this as authentic and it’s likely been around the clock
- We’ve not been informed of any paperwork supplied with the car
The Condition
- Mint green paintwork with black canvas sunroof
- Largely in good order with the odd bubble or blister
- We can’t see any signs of significant corrosion
- Canvas roof looks like a fairly new aftermarket example
- Interior in fair order with age-commensurate wear
- We note a crack in the dashboard binnacle
- Seats are free of rips and tears
- Door cards carry some wear
- Carpets are looking rather tired
- Some corrosion and pitting to areas of the interior brightwork
- Underneath, the car has been generously treated
- It looks solid to our eyes with standard age-commensurate corrosion
The Mechanics

- 4-speed manual transmission
- Engine bay looks in good order with wear
- The vendor informs us that the car starts, brakes, drives and shifts
