Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.05) based on 335 votes
You are bidding on my Fiat 500 
The car comes complete with 11 months MOT & 2 months tax (Being a 1969 model. It is tax exempt)
The car has been subject to a bare metal respray as the previous owner had it painted but not very well.  
Once taken back. No issues were found. Sills were new.  Doors perfect.
The cars interior is new. including carpets. seats & door panels. The camera flash makes its appear less than so but can assure you they are pristine.
New chrome mirrors. New chrome bumpers etc.
New fabric Webasto roof.
New plugs. leads. filters and carb stripped and rebuilt.
The reason I purchased the car was the amount of work that had been carried out prior to purchase.
The car comes complete with circa £5000 of receipts for works carried out including engine rebuild and ancilliaries. transmission. hubs. bearings. axles. suspension. dampers 
The list goes on and on as evidenced by the invoices. the list continues with my spending my days popping down to the Fiat specialist down the road from me and just buying more and more bits to make the car as it should.
The parts being pennies. This became quite addictive and part of the charm of the Fiat 500.
The car car starts first time. Runs and has not been driven hardly at all since the rebuild so it in effect new and should be treated as such.
It has a new clutch which engages positively.  
Being a 1969 model. the car has a non synchro box so is period correct and all gears and mechanicals are as they should be. This means to new prospective buyers you have to double declutch.
The car has an upgraded electronic Lumination ignition system so no need to replace plugs and points and the things that normally go wrong with these systems.
The wheels are from a later R model and asked the bodyshop to paint the wheels.
The floors are solid evidenced by the MOT and from the pictures you can see it has been undersealed by the previous restorer.
I will be giving the general valet of the car inside. out and underneath as it has been in storage or having works done since I purchased it.
I do believe short of spending alot more money you will not find one a better one
Things that you may consider doing. only because I was planning to do so was to change the rubber grommets in the door jambs as they were sprayed over by the previous painter.
Door interiors show minor scuff marks on the paint work and have included enough paint to respray half the car. If you T cut them or painted them then would complete the look inside and out.
Engine could do with a wipe down as its hasn't been steam cleaned.
O/S hub may need replacing. Bushes have been changed but a complete hub is circa £50 and a few minutes to fit.  
Its the silly things and pennies to put right but I don't have the time to do anything due to work commitments and decided that someone else should be allowed to enjoy the car for the upcoming summer.  Car has never been in the rain as the previous owner had it garage since they purchased it 3 years ago.
All in all. A great little car ready to drive away.
The car is available for viewing with prior notice as Its in secure storage and have to arrange a day for prospective buyers to view.  
Car is located in the Bedford Area. MK44
Good luck and happy bidding!
Please only bid if you are happy and not haggle if you do win. I am not here to waste peoples time and would ask you the same courtesy.
Any questions feel free to ask.
I AM AVAILABLE FOR VIEWINGS 4th FEBRUARY 2014.  
I will not be available for a for circa 7 days as I am going into hospital and will not be allowed to drive for this time.

Thank you
