- A wish of Mr. Gianni Agnelli to have a model that could be a competitor of the Mini Moke
- Just 3. 200 examples have been made
- Eye Catching and lots of fun to drive for very reasonable price


The Fiat Jungla was a wish of Mr. Gianni Agnelli to have a model that could be a competitor of the Mini Moke. The model was made for Fiat by Carrozzeria Savio in Turin. Just 3. 200 examples have been made. Eye Catching and lots of fun to drive.

Based on the Fiat 600, the Jungla was a utilitarian jeep-like vehicle designed for work, not pleasure. It was first shown at the Turin Motorshow in 1965, entered production in the following year and continued to be built until 1974.

Characterized by it’s spartan fittings, it used the 600 mechanicals with a little change being a rear-mounted, water-cooled 767cc engine driving the rear wheels. Drum brakes all round were hidden by wheels from the Fiat 1100. Later, when the 600 ceased production in Italy it used the similar engine from the Seat 600E from Spain. The controls were also from the 600, whilst the instrumentation was from the 500. A fuel gauge was not fitted, merely a warning light for the reserve.
A soft-top was available, as were cloth doors (which had plastic windows). The spartanism continued to the single windscreen-wiper (drivers-side only). Interestingly, although it was produced by Savio, the project actually came from within Fiat’s Engineering department.

Carrozzeria Savio is another Turin based company mostly known for making bodies for Fiat cars, Savio was founded in 1919 by the two Savio brothers, Antonio and Giuseppe. They went on to make bodies for numerous manufacturers (including Itala, OM, Isotta Fraschini, Ansaldo, Chiribiri, Alfa Romeo, Fiat and Lancia) as well as for other carrozzeria (including Garavini, Farina, Boneschi and Ghia).

They became more closely connected with Fiat around this time, and produced the 1400B saloon, 1200 Sport, 2300S Coupe and 600D Polis. In 1965 they released the Fiat 600 based ‘Jungla’, later evolving into a 126 based model. Notable amongst their relatively recent products is the Lancia Delta S4, for which Savio made the body. The company still exists today.

ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC EXAMPLE
This specific Jungla started life some years after the production ended. It was sold in Treviso, Italy and registered at the first of August 1977.
The first Italian registration documents are still with the car which is really nice and unique.
In 2016, the Jungla was imported to Holland where it became part of a huge classic car collection from a private gentlemen. He did not really use the car and had to decrease the number of cars in his collection and therefore we were able to buy the car from him.

CONDITION EXTERIOR
The condition of the exterior of this Jungla is outstanding. The car has a very very nice paint. Also the optional soft top and windows are coming with the car.
The tires under the car are very recent and the wheels are also in a very nice condition.
Furthermore there are not many exterior parts which can be described as the car is basic and the basic makes the car so nice and enjoyable.

CONDITION INTERIOR
The condition of the interior is nice. Probably a bit less as the beautiful exterior but definitely nice.
The material on the seats is nice and all in good condition/ order
1 thing which needs to be changed is the gear knob but this is very simple off-course.

DRIVING EXPERIENCE
Driving the Jungla is really fantastic and gives a lot of fun. What a nice car to enjoy on hot summer days. It is very easy to drive and rather fast due to the low weight.
An amazing car for a relative low amount of money which gives a lot of fun.
