Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This rare, low-mileage Bertone X1/9 is a late-production model with a desirable 1500cc engine and 5-speed gearbox, presented in a unique color with a well-preserved interior. While it boasts excellent originality and documentation, it will require some mechanical recommissioning, particularly with the brakes and coolant system, before it can be considered a show-stopper.
Condition

The car is described as highly original and well-preserved with nice original paintwork and minimal signs of corrosion. It has low mileage and has had few owners. However, it requires some recommissioning, including attention to the brakes which need a firm push to stop, and a coolant leak when idling, suggesting hoses need attention. While it passed its MOT with no advisories, the description notes that a thorough service and check-over would be advisable before road use.

A mid-engined, rear-wheel drive two-seater with a removable Targa top, it initially had the Lampredi-designed 75bhp 1300cc engine and four-speed gearbox from the Fiat 128, although from 1979 this was uprated to an 85bhp 1500cc Weber twin-choke carb unit mated to a five-speed box.
To meet emissions standards, American market cars had Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection which sapped the power somewhat.
