Description from the seller

Italian car with original Como license plates – a rarity for vintage enthusiasts

We present a rare Italian car, equipped with Como’s historic original plates, a true jewel for classic car aficionados. This specimen was completely restored in the late 1990s, preserving intact the charm and authenticity of the original vehicle.

The bodywork is in excellent condition, with slight signs of use and some restorations carried out with care. The chrome trim is also well preserved, with only two small marks on the chrome trim of the rear wheelarch area that do not compromise the overall aesthetics. The interiors, original, are perfect and attest to careful maintenance that respects the car’s original style. The soft top bears a light scratch on the front left pillar, a minimal detail that does not affect waterproofing in any way.

From a mechanical standpoint, the engine has benefited from recent attention: in April 2026 an oil change and the battery replacement were performed, thus ensuring reliability and optimal performance. The suspension is in perfect condition, guaranteeing a safe and comfortable drive.

The car is sold with a valid inspection in progress, ready to be enjoyed immediately. The original user and maintenance handbook is an additional value, a rarity that confirms complete traceability and care of the vehicle over time.

Keys and original spare keys present

An unmissable opportunity for those who wish to own an authentic piece of Italian automotive tradition, preserved with care and expertise.

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.
