Fiat, in Scalextric terms, has always been of interest mainly in regard to the smaller cars.
CFTC 600 was the first model made in Spain and always had a chassis of the same colour as the body which was primarily issued in red, white, light green, and blue. This was the first car designed and made in Spain which is one of the reasons why it is a favourite of many collectors. The later C31 TC600 has a black underpan and was available in the same colours as above plus a grey version. This grey version was never available with grey underpan.
For the UK, the C99 Fiat TV600’s were imported from Spain and were only available in red and white, with black chassis and were stickered as “race tuned”.
In France the Fiat Abarth was released whilst the brand was evolving under the new ownership of Meccano France.
