The Fiat 850 Bertone Spider offered here is an attractive example of the rear-engine Italian runabout. According to the consignor, this car has been updated to Abarth 1000 OT Spider specifications, and reportedly as the larger 982cc engine, which has not been confirmed as of cataloguing. It was acquired by the vendor, a passionate Fiat and Abarth enthusiast, in 2020 to replace a similar car he had regrettably sold.
The subject of an older restoration, it is crisp and attractive in its classic red paint with authentic black upholstery and a black top. Despite its tiny outward dimensions, the 850's cockpit is remarkably comfortable even for taller drivers, thanks in large part to the rear-mounted engine. The cockpit is tidy, and an array of Veglia Borletti dials faces the driver ahead of a period Ferrero sports steering wheel. Additionally, this car features Abarth cosmetic and performance enhancements, including 1000 OT badging, lightweight Campagnolo magnesium wheels, tubular exhaust header, and a free-flowing Abarth muffler.
An honest and well-tended car, it was reportedly a delight to drive on its last outing, with ample grunt from the rear-mounted Fiat engine and a wonderfully gutsy soundtrack that simply begs for you to point and shoot this handsome little barchetta down your favorite twisting back road.
