La Dolce Vita on Four Wheels

Few cars capture the charm and spirit of post-war Italy quite like the Fiat 500, affectionately known as the Cinquecento. Launched in 1957 as the Nuova 500, this pint-sized icon brought affordable motoring to millions and became a symbol of freedom, style, and practicality throughout Europe.

This beautifully presented 1958 example has been lovingly restored and remains close to its original factory specification. Finished in a delightful blue exterior with a period-correct black interior, it features the signature full-length sunroof, allowing open-air motoring at the pull of a latch.

Under the rear engine cover sits Fiat’s charming 479cc twin-cylinder, air-cooled engine, paired to a 4-speed manual gearbox. While it wears an Abarth alloy rocker cover, this particular car is not a true Abarth model, though it certainly channels that same spirited attitude.

The car rides on its original 12-inch wheels, completing the authentic look of this much-loved city classic.

Compact, collectible, and full of character, this Fiat 500 is the perfect way to relive the golden age of Italian motoring, a car that will make you smile every time you turn the key.
