Now I know LouiseM is a fan of the latest retro Fiat 500.
Like a few of us but she actually has one, does yours have a sunroof Lou as I wasn't aware of one that was brought out a few years ago in the Emerald Isle so I thought I had better show you what I was going on about

It would be really useful at some of the wetter rally's this year.

That is AWESOME. Where can I get it?

Maybe that's what we need to do with ours! Mind the bad photo taken through a window.

No sunroof though >: All the way from Serbia! Some may remember me mentioning one left and stuck out in Vienna.

You could always give it to me Chelsea, I'd look after it

Certainly is a Zastava! Well spotted there. We find it easier to just tell people it's a Fiat 500. xD
It's not been registered here yet, so still has Serbian plates, tax and SRB sticker (also the original interior, in a lovely shade of 60-70's golden brown) - it's going into storage for the winter now, as dad doesn't want it to rot. Tis a nippy little thing: bringing it back from the port was fun - it doesn't go over speed bumps, it goes up them, goes across them, then goes down them. Tehee!
We'll probably register it when the winter goes away and after we've done a little tinkering.

Wasn't the zastava 750 based on the Fiat 600?

Posted: **Sat Nov 14, 2009 9:19 am**

Yes it's the same thing but continued in production until 1985ish so a bit easier to get hold of than the Fiat

YupYup!

Hmm could be a nice Abarth Replica

Not that it needs any improving - looks perfectly good as is

I am also a massive fan of the latest 500, although they appear to have brought out a version which costs £55k which may be taking things a little far...

Here's a picture of my two 'babies' side by side. I must admit I have a bit of a hankering for an original 500 but there's only room for one classic in the garage and it has to be a Minor

Super cool collection of motors Lou, complement each other very nicely.

I'm rather dissapointed that you didn't take the time to get an "SL" plate?

Posted: **Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:48 pm**

Number plate very fitting, but I like the Moggy with added 'UMP-F'

Posted: **Mon Nov 16, 2009 8:17 pm**

Wot Loiuse reeelly needs is this!

Saw it in Sorrento a couple of years ago; it seemed to have the Abarth quick bits. It was nice to see that the Italians treasure their treasures!
