Description from the seller

In the mid-1960s, two visionaries, the Marquis Bargagli and Narciso Cristiani, conceived a totally innovative form of urban mobility. Zagato noticed the Urbanina on display at the Turin Motor Show and was impressed. When the Milan Fair asked Zagato to set up the cars, electric of course, to serve as service vehicles for the International Milan Fair of 1972, Elio Zagato turned to Poggio Adorno to purchase mechanicals and chassis on which to build his own fiberglass-bodied bodywork. The fiberglass-bodied Urbanine bodies created by Zagato were called "Milanine." Today they are exceedingly rare.

Externally the car is presented in excellent conservation condition. The yellow and blue colors are the ones with which the car circulated inside the Milan Fair. Moreover, this is the only known example to have retained its original license plates. The doors open fully up to the strike and open and close well. The bodywork does not require interventions. It is a preserved item and is beautiful as it is.

Mechanically the car requires a complete restart. The car comes with its original charger as well, but we have not started it due to the peculiarities of the vehicle; however, since it is equipped with all the original components with which it left the factory, it can be started.

Internally the car shows what it was designed for. Two seats and a decent boot, headlights and a control panel. All electrical components are original and have never been touched or replaced. Plastic seats and rubber mats highlight the minimalist concept for which it was designed.

Electric car.
• First registration license plate.
• First owner: Milan Fair.
• Drivable and working but needs restarting as it has been idle for several years.

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.
