Description: Conceived as a successor to the legendary Topolino model Fiat 500, the Nuova 500 arrived in New Zealand almost by chance, but was eventually produced in some numbers by Torino Motors, local assemblers and distributors. The bok expalins the political machinations that put Torino Motors into the hot seat and goes on to describe the Bambina`s career in New Zealand with short stories about many of the enthusiasts who keep the model alive. It is a well written and beautifully presented book and a great read for any motoring enthusiast.
