This 1958 Spanish-built ISO Isetta is one of the rarest and most desirable of all micro cars. It has had a sympathetic restoration to creditable microcar standards in two tone blue with a plaid cloth and vinyl interior and black vinyl folding sunroof - a safety feature of Isettas in case a front-end collision blocked the Isetta's single front door.

It has the more desirable bubble Plexiglas windows, hinged front quarter windows for ventilation, wraparound rear window and Isetta hubcaps. The bumpers are unusually substantial, a feature of the Iso Espana built cars, and it has four wheels (some British-built Isettas had three), and is powered by the Iso single cylinder, 2-stroke engine; a rare and highly desirable automobile.
