picked up mine yesterday,being a m reg with sx style lights,im still yet to find a rust spot and its the oldest one ive owned out of 3,

so the bodywork of a better quality than later or ive come acorss a 50,000 mile gem thats been looked after?

Chances are you've just been lucky. Check the rear arches and the point where the rear beam mounts, though!

seems to be luck on my side for once,havent found any yet,arches are getting good clean alter,went round inside with a magnet and tapped with various hammers and nothing yet,beam is coming of later this week! plenty to be done

I had an N reg cinqy that'd rusted pretty much everywhere.......

My R reg is pritty much Rust free

out of 3 fiats,2 cinq and a sei my first without a spot well happy!

My Sei is rust free

Most seicentos seem to be advertised as rust free...... Yeh on the body panels.... But the further you look under arch liners the more rust you find

In my experience the best cars ive found for least amounts of rust are the M reg cars, I currently have 2 and they are superb. The worst ive found are the R plate ones.
