Description
1982 Fiat X1/9 Versione – One of 300 Produced, 1 Owner, 9k Miles, Highly Original
Offered for sale is an exceptionally rare and highly original 1982 Fiat X1/9 Versione, believed to be number one of only 300 examples produced in this special configuration. With just over 9,000 original miles and a single owner from new, this mid-engine Italian sports car represents a unique opportunity for collectors seeking authenticity, low mileage, and historical significance.
Provenance & Documentation
This X1/9 has remained in the care of its original owner since delivery, and its provenance is supported by an impressive collection of documentation. Included in the sale are the factory window sticker, original purchase documents, factory books, and a dealer-installed Blaupunkt radio. The car has also received a fresh servicing, ensuring it’s mechanically sound and ready to enjoy.
Exterior Condition & Paint
Finished in its factory original two-tone paint, the car retains a remarkable shine—reflective of its low mileage and garage-kept life. A small section of the driver’s door was repainted to correct a cosmetic issue, with no bodywork required. The rest of the paint is believed to be original. As is typical with older silver metallic finishes, subtle aging is visible upon close inspection, but the overall presentation remains strong. The body is straight, and panel fitment is consistent throughout.
Mechanical & Driving Experience
Powered by a gasoline engine and paired with a manual transmission, the X1/9 delivers a spirited driving experience with its mid-engine layout and lightweight chassis. The recent servicing ensures smooth operation and reliability, making it suitable for both weekend drives and vintage events.
Summary
This 1982 Fiat X1/9 Versione is a rare survivor—one of just 300 built, and possibly the very first. With only one owner, just over 9,000 miles, and a high degree of originality, it stands as a collector-grade example of Bertone’s iconic wedge-shaped design. Whether destined for a curated collection or enthusiast ownership, this X1/9 offers a compelling blend of rarity, preservation, and Italian charm.
