Big Bum

The Fiat Nuova 500 was introduced in July 1957 and sold until 1975. An air-cooled two-cylinder engine of 13 hp and an unsynchronized gearbox may not impress today. And although the model is called “Big Bum”, I think it is quite charming. Especially when you find an extra equipped (roof rack) specimen on a narrow street near the ancient Forum Romanum in central Rome.
