I have always loved small Fiats and the more crowded our roads get, the more sense they make. You should have two levers between the front seats, one is the choke the other the starter.
On some others ( the 600 and 850 ) the starter is changed to a hand throttle. Very handy with a sun roof as you can set the hand throttle and stand on the seat driving it like a submarine but only on empty private roads of course!!!!
I wish you well with your purchase, they are rising in price by the day.
Thanks. Yes, two levers, one starts it but the other (choke) is totally disconnected). It starts instantly so must have a more modern ignition system (but it is on a Weber carb). I found the hand throttle but hadn't considered sitting on the roof and driving with my feet - that's a bloody brilliant stunt and will be attempted the next time I am bored (quite soon, probably)...
