AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Overview / Conditions
This Italian-origin car represents the ideal purchase for those seeking a classic without the uncertainties of starting a project. Thanks to a complete restoration carried out in the early 2000s, the vehicle has benefited from structural and aesthetic interventions that have ensured its longevity, now presenting in a state of efficiency that makes it immediately ready for use.
ESTERNI
The line of the vehicle retains all its original charm. The restoration of the past has protected the panels, which appear solid and well aligned.
The bodywork is in good overall condition, although it shows small and minor localized defects on the front hood, typical of road use (such as small stone chips or slight weathering). These imperfections do not compromise its overall aesthetics but serve as a testament to the honesty and authenticity of the vehicle.
Chromed fixtures and lighting are in order, completing a pleasing and well-maintained aesthetic.
MECHANICS
From a technical standpoint, the vehicle has been maintained carefully to ensure its consistent reliability.
The mechanical conditions are good; the engine starts promptly and runs smoothly.
Thanks to the care received over the years after restoration, the chassis and transmission respond well, offering a smooth and safe driving experience. It is a car designed to be driven, perfect for gatherings, Sunday events, or day trips without the need for immediate workshop interventions.
Interiors
The interior is the part that has benefited the most from conservative care after restoration.
The interiors still appear as new, a testament to the quality of the materials chosen during the restoration in the 2000s and the very low usage since then.
The upholstery is tight and free of signs of wear; the dashboard is intact, and all internal components reflect the freshness of work executed to a high standard. Entering the car still gives the feeling of a renewed and clean environment.
In summary, this car is the perfect compromise between a quality preserved and a mature restoration. It is the right choice for those seeking an iconic Italian vehicle, with solid mechanics and impeccable interiors, accepting those small external patinas that tell the story of a beloved and well-used car.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
