Description
The little Isetta became a big world car. It all started in Italy with Iso, and shortly after, BMW bought the license to build it themselves. They made numerous changes and improvements, and soon it was the BMW variant that became the model for most of the offshoots around the world. The Isetta came to be assembled in France, England, Belgium, Spain, Brazil, and Argentina.
This particular Isetta comes from the British factory in Brighton. There, they produced a purely three-wheeled variant (otherwise, it had dual rear wheels placed closely together) that was favorable under the tax regulations there. This was also advantageous in Sweden, where three-wheelers are classified as motorcycles.
This specific Isetta was sold new in Sweden in 1962 and was put away quite early. For the past 55 years, it has only been brought out sporadically for short trips around the yard. It is not registered, but the original inspection instruments are included.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
