The 1987 Fiat X1/9 1500) is a Nuccio Bertone-styled, wedge-shaped, mid-engined, Targa-top sports car celebrated for its exceptional, balanced handling

While early models (1972–1981) were manufactured and badged entirely by Fiat, Bertone took over complete production and branding in 1982

It could be argued that the X1/9 is the missing link between the Lancia Stratos and the Lamborghini Countach, all penned by Bertone, who defined the “wedge design” of the early 1970s

By 1987, the car featured revised, deeper footwells for improved legroom, modern two-tone paint schemes, and more luxurious interior finishes compared to its 1970s iterations. The removable Targa roof panel stores perfectly inside the front boot, maintaining the car's mid-engine weight distribution even when driving in the open-air

First registered on the 5/8/1987, this triple black X1/9 is fitted with the desirable 1500cc engine and five-speed manual gearbox

The car is a rare survivor and has had a recent engine overhaul including a new head gasket and cambelt

Recent cosmetic enhancements include a wheel refurb, powder coated and diamond cut. The history file includes handbook, receipts, and service book

With an odometer reading of 38,079 miles, we can think of no better opportunity to own a right-hand drive, mid-engine, Italian sports car and at a tantalising No Reserve.
