PICTURES
 

For Fiat pictures see the picture pages.
There is an old picture page with only 3 pictures on it, and the new picture page (added 15 feb 2000) with much more pictures, including some pictures which indicate the weak spots of the Fiat 850 coupe body.

But also on this page there is a picture available, my Fiat 850 sport coupe (series 2 model from 1969).
It has been imported from Italy to the Netherlands in 1998

In the Netherlands the licence plate of a car gives an indication of the age of the car.
For the production years of Fiat 850 (1964-1973) I made an overview of used series.
You can see that the system used from 1959 on is not pure chronological, and has overlap in 1965, 1966 and 1970 with the system that has been introduced in 1965.

Licence plates with 2 letters followed by 4 numbers are used from 1959 till 1970
(example AD-11-11) and in later years for classic cars (see below)
1964: GF, GH, GJ, GL, GM, GR, GS, GU, GZ, HE, HJ, HL, HM, HN, HR, HS, HU, HV, HZ, JA, JE, JF, JH, JJ, JL, JM, MA
1965: EF, EL, EN, ER, ES, EV, EZ, FA, FF, FL, FN, FR, FS, FU, FV, FZ, GE, GF but note that also the new system was already used in 1965, see below
1966: EH, EJ, EL, EU, FE, FJ, FM but note that also the new system was already used in 1965, see below
1970: EA, EE

Licence plates with 4 numbers followed by 2 letters are used from 1965 till 1973
(example 11-11-AD)
1965: AD-BA
1966: BA-DK
1967: DK-EZ
1968: EZ-HN
1969: HN-ML
1970: ML-RA
1971: RA-TA (SV, SX, SZ AND TA USED IN 1971 AND 1972)
1972: SV-VZ (VR, VS, VT, VU, VV, VX, VZ USED IN 1972 AND 1973)
1973: VR-ZX

In 1973 a new system has been introduced: 2 numbers, followed by 2 letters, followed by 2 numbers (example 00-AB-00)
1973: AD-BH
 

Classic car licence plates
From later years on (early 90's) unused series of the "two-letters-followed-by four number system" (AD-11-11) have been used for (imported) classis cars built in 1973 or earlier. Till now a few letters are being used in this system: DE, DH, DL, DM, AE, AH, AL.
Recently also in the range 2 numbers, followed by 2 letters, followed by 2 numbers YA, so as example
11-YA-11
