This fantastic-driving Fiat Spider 1800 was originally delivered in the US, but was completely converted to the European model during the restoration. That means: no side indicators, no bulky bumpers, but the elegant, original European look.
The car was imported into the Netherlands in 1991 and was stored in a dry place for years with the second owner. In 2018/2019, it was fully and professionally restored by a renowned restoration company. I bought the car in 2020 with 39,413 miles on the odometer; it is now at 43,311 miles. Always driven on Superplus 98. Unfortunately, I have less and less time due to staying abroad. Work performed (professionally done)
