The Milanese firm's next effort, based on the FIAT 1400, was the Rallye, a traditionally styled roadster bearing more than a passing resemblance to the MG TD. Not all SIATA's designs were so obviously plagiarised, the series of FIAT 8V 2-litre V8-powered coupés of the 1950s - equipped with a variety of stylish Italian coachwork from the likes of
Stabilimenti
Farina, Vignale and Bertone and arguably the firm's finest creations - being particularly striking.
SIATAs of the 1960s continued to be FIAT based, the Michelotti-bodied 1500 TS Coupé being the most noteworthy. The latter's twin-carburettor engine produced 94bhp while the later 1600 model had 106 horsepower on tap.
In 1968 SIATA returned to the MG theme with its swansong model: the Spring. A two-seat sports roadster constructed on the rear-engined FIAT 850S floorpan, the Spring lasted until 1970, with a brief revival by ORSA in 1973.
This sporting Italian rarity was acquired for the collection at a German auction in 2006 and comes with the purchase invoice.
Ahead of sale, the car has been lightly recommissioned: new fuel filter installed; fuel lines replaced with new ones; brake pump removed, repaired, and reinstalled; and a new battery installed.
Additional paperwork includes an ASI certificate dated 1992; copies of Netherlands registration documents; customs papers; photographs of maintenance; and a list of works carried out in 2010.
