Steal of the Year? Fiat 750 Coupe

• 

Say you have 10,000 GBP to spend tomorrow. Then you may consider going to the Royal Horticural Halls for a classic car sale organized by auctioneer Coys of Kensington, which happens to be quite local to the venue. Going by the estimates, your choice will be limited to just three cars, and all three of them are Italian. There’s a 1985 Alfa Spider and there’s a 1973 Alfa 2000 but both of these don’t do very much to us. The third of them, however, is of a very different kind. This is a beautifully proportioned and superb looking 1963 Fiat 750 Coupe with body by Vignale. A car you could drive to any prestigious Concours d’Elegance without looking bad between the million dollar vehicles. In fact, we’re quite sure we’ll prefer this great little thing over yet another Miura or Lusso. The Fiat is said to have had just one owner in Italy until it was sold to the UK in 2016. What’s more: the 36,000 kilometers on the odometer are believed to be genuine and only the gorgeous red interior has been reupholstered. Now... if Coys' estimate is right, could this be the steal of the year…?
