1960s Fiat 500 Giardiniera. as rare as hen's teeth.

This is an exceptionally rare Fiat 500 Giardiniera and you really ought to buy it before someone else does. You like those cheeky little classic Fiat 500s? Well this is the estate version. much rarer and excellent for showing. sunny weekends with the roof back or advertising your business. You could use it as your daily drive if you wanted to but that's not what I would do with such a cherished example of automotive history.

The "Giardiniera" (station wagon) featured the standard Fiat 500 engine laid on its side. the wheelbase was lengthened by 10 cm to provide a more convenient rear seat and it comes equipped with full-length sunroof. These station wagon 500s are very rarely available. especially in as good a condition as this one. which was imported from San Benedetto Del Tronto near Ancona in the South of Italy. The car appears to be a good quality older restoration. The paintwork. mechanicals. electricals and body are of a very good standard. the chrome work is bright and the interior is lovely with an honest. original feel.

The car is reliable and with a strong engine. There are only very minor blemishes (see photos). which really don't detract from the appearance of the car at all but which should be attended to inexpensively in order to keep this fast appreciating classic car on the road for another 50 years.

The car will come with a dating letter from the Fiat Owner's Club GB for DVLA registration purposes. I've had this car for about 3 years and have never wanted to sell it; however. if it doesn't go SHE will. which will cost me a fortune and selling it will earn me a good few quid. Mind you SHE does have a point: I have another Giardiniera. 2 classic Fiat 600s from the 1960s. a 1978 Fiat 124 Spider. a 1968 Fiat 850s coupe and (creme de la creme) a 1953 Fiat Topolino (and those are just my Italian classics). Interested in any of those?

You can contact me on 07577200300 (please text me first as I get a lot of spam calls so sometimes don't pick up unknown numbers and I really don't want PPI claim services and I haven't had an accident recently for which I can sue the pants off anyone. but thanks anyway).

Please don't ask me for my "best price" as I won't give it but if you want to make a bid. please first check Car and Classic or other classic car sites to give you an idea of value.
