The seller offers for sale this 1979 Fiat 124 Spider, powered by a 1.8-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
Finished in silver with a red leather interior, this example presents in good condition overall. The car is fitted with a black soft top, a period-style chrome luggage rack on the bootlid, and an aftermarket wood-rim three-spoke steering wheel. The odometer shows 86,000 miles. The vehicle carries a Dutch registration and is currently located in northern France.
The Fiat 124 Spider was introduced in 1966 as a collaboration between Fiat and coachbuilder Pininfarina, and remained in production until 1985. Based on the Fiat 124 saloon platform, it offered a twin-cam engine, independent suspension all round, and rack-and-pinion steering in a stylish two-seat open body. The later CS2 series, to which this example belongs, received revised front styling and a larger 1.8-litre engine, improving performance and driveability. The 124 Spider was sold in large numbers in both the United States and Europe, and today enjoys a strong following among classic car enthusiasts.
