Description
1972 Fiat 500 L
No reserve
French registration document
Chassis number: 003015403
- Elegant 1972 L version
- Documented history
- Charming presentation
Introduced in the late 1960s, the ‘L’ version – standing for Lusso – adds an extra touch of refinement to the original design. More opulent, it is distinguished in particular by its reinforced bumpers with chrome end caps, an enhanced interior and various finishing touches that contribute to its success. Today, these versions are among the most sought-after by enthusiasts of classic Fiat 500s.
The example offered for sale is a Fiat 500 L produced in August 1972, fitted with the 110F000 engine. It is finished in a deep blue colour combined with red and white upholstery featuring white piping. White-walled tyres complete this particularly successful presentation.
This car was originally delivered to the Netherlands, as evidenced by the Dutch owner’s manual kept in its file. It was subsequently acquired by a first French owner who undertook a partial restoration before it was sold to its current owner in 2017. A file accompanies the car, containing invoices tracing its history from its time in the Netherlands up to its acquisition by the current owner.
The car is currently in good overall condition, as evidenced by its passing MOT. It has undergone work on various bodywork components, a partial repaint, and a complete replacement of the interior trim. Whilst a few details might be addressed by an enthusiast wishing to achieve concours-level presentation, the car as a whole remains particularly attractive and cohesive. The large chrome bumpers specific to the L version are in good condition, as is the vinyl soft top, which contributes greatly to the model’s charm.
