Description

This exceptional 1972 Fiat 500L has been extensively restored to an outstanding standard with no expense spared. Beautifully finished in a striking Ferrari Blue using the premium Glasurit paint system, this classic Italian icon has been restored with meticulous attention to detail and a focus on quality throughout. The engine bay was restored and painted to the same high standard as the exterior, while the engine fully dismantled, inspected and rebuilt where required. The engine casings were refinished in vibrant red, creating a beautifully detailed engine compartment, while the brake system was completely overhauled, with a new fuel tank and fuel lines. The interior has been completely retrimmed using Ferrari-inspired cream leatherette, giving the cabin a luxurious yet period-appropriate appearance. The quality of workmanship is evident throughout and perfectly complements the exterior colour scheme. Since the restoration was completed, the car has been maintained regardless of cost. Recent work includes a new battery, spark plugs, points and condenser

The Fiat starts easily, drives beautifully and sounds exactly as a properly-restored Fiat 500 should. Since completion, the car has been stored in a garage and has never been driven on the road. It has only attended a classic car show, transported there on a trailer, where it attracted significant attention. It's registered as a Historic Vehicle, and as such is MoT, ULEZ, and tax exempt, with only one owner since its UK registration. This is an outstanding example of the much-loved Fiat 500L, restored to a level rarely seen and built with quality rather than budget in mind. Combining timeless Italian styling with tasteful upgrades and exceptional craftsmanship, it represents an excellent opportunity for a discerning collector or enthusiast.
