Fiat 500 1971
General description :
The Fiat 500 tells itself:
Hi, I’m Thino, an Abarth customized Fiat 500. I’ll make one thing clear right away, just so as not to be misunderstood: I’m not a nice guy! just like that!
Perhaps you are used to seeing the other small Fiat 500s happily trotting around the streets of your cities, while the children on street corners greet them with their little hands soiled with chocolate.
Forget all that, with me the children cry! And the old men raise their walking stick to curse my roar!
I have not always been like this, once I was also a harmless Fiat 500, like all the others, then, as often happens in these cases, they abandoned me in a barn and left there for years. My fate seemed sealed.
Then, unexpectedly, 9 years ago I was adopted by a new friend. He took care of me and promised me that I would be back on the roads again. The treatments lasted 4 years, and the cost to get me back on track cost over 17,000 euros. Man, he must have loved me very much!
Finally the big day had arrived. My long hibernation was coming to an end.
My new friend puts the key in the instrument cluster, turns the key, and ….
woooaahhh! – what is all this noise ?? !! – I can’t believe it’s me!
From scrap abandoned under a shed, to bad guy!
See me! I have widened wheel arches, front disc brakes, tuned 740cc engine, sports exhaust, thousand mile rims, and a top speed of 160km / h.
In the city where I lived, Alberobello, I darted at full speed among the trulli and I had a lot of fun on the country roads.
Now the time has come for me to look for a new adventure buddy, and that’s why I’m here today!
If you think you are a good companion on adventures, take me home with you, I will not disappoint you and I am sure that, together, we will have a lot of fun.

About Fiat
Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino (FIAT to you and I) was founded by Giovanni Agnelli in 1899. Their first car 3 ½ CV had a strong resembledence to contemporary Benz, only 25 examples were built. By 1910 Fiat had established itself as Italia's biggest car manufacturer and expanded to the US, where a new plant was built in Poughkeepsie, NY.At that time Fiat cars were big and luxurious barges for the wealthy or barking mad racing cars like S76 , The beast of Turin, with its 290HP 28.5-liter, four-cylinder engine.
However, today Fiat is better reknown for its small symphatic peoples carriers, Topolino, 500 "Cinquecento" and 600.
