Description from the seller
IN HIGHLIGHTS:
• Iconic 1980 Fiat 124 Spider 2000 produced by Pininfarina with 2.0-liter dual-overhead-cam engine
• Registered in the ASI historic register
• Periodic inspection conducted in September 2026 with regular outcome
• Equipped with original magnesium alloy Cromodora wheels
• Fitted with a black hydro-repellent fabric hood and new battery installed in September 2026
HISTORY/PANORAMIC:
The Fiat 124 Spider 2000 represents one of the most famous and elegant Italian spiders designed by Pininfarina, powered by the long-lived dual-overhead cam Fiat 2.0-liter engine with a twin carburetor. This USA-spec example spent part of its life in the United States (where it had two owners) before being re-imported to Italy in 2020, and currently belongs to its only Italian owner. The car is ASI registered, benefited from a full service in 2026, and underwent regular periodic inspection in September 2026. The five-digit odometer indicates approximately 18,228 miles.
BODY/PAINT:
The bodywork is in generally excellent condition, retaining the original sheet metal. The car is finished in a pastel red (applied under a previous ownership to replace the original Metallic Slate Gray). Minor scratches, small crazing, and localized paint chips or bubbles are present. The magnesium alloy wheels are the original Cromodora, paired with tires in excellent condition. Emblems, identifying lettering, moldings, side reflectors, and front/rear lighting remain in order. The glass, windshield, and seals show no significant imperfections. The black hydro-repellent fabric hood is well preserved and free of tears. The underbody and floorpan are intact and free of rust penetration.
INTERIORS:
The cabin remains orderly and is trimmed in black vinyl. The dashboard and instruments maintain coordinated wood-effect inserts, Pininfarina badge, locking glove compartment, and period Veglia analog instrumentation (speedometer up to 85 mph and tachometer up to 8,000 rpm). The carpeting and interior trims show no damage. Equipment includes a AM/FM/cassette radio, manual window lifts, and manually adjustable mirrors. The rear compartment houses the new battery (replaced on 09/09/2026), the jack, and the original spare wheel kit.
MECHANICS:
The car is equipped with the 2.0-liter twin-overhead-cam Fiat engine with a twin-carburetor setup, paired with the standard 5-speed manual transmission. The engine starts smoothly and idles without unusual noises; all gears engage properly. The engine bay is clean and free of visible leaks. The vehicle has recently benefited from a full service and battery replacement.
DOCUMENTS:
The car is delivered with the required documentation for ownership transfer and ASI Historic Registry certification.
The vehicle is located in Torella del Sannio (Campobasso), Italy, and is available for viewing and test drive by appointment with Catawiki. The seller is willing to arrange transport and shipping within Italy or abroad through a specialized company, as well as logistical assistance for export procedures (costs borne by the buyer).

Disclaimer
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.
