Do some fiat 500s have a third seatbelt in the rear seats?

Looking on parkers website, they list 3x3 rear seatbelts as an optional extra?
If so, can the third be retrofitted?
 
Wasn't intending to be there myself, my daughter has occasionally had to give 4 friends a lift within the town, and has meant 2 trips. The previous car was a corsa with 3 seatbelts in the back.

Nothing illegal intended, just asking about the option since it's listed on parkers website.

I don't recall ever seeing this on the 500. The contouring of the rear seats doesn't really lend itself to seating three abreast.

However, it certainly was an option on the 169 Panda; cars could be ordered with an additional seatbelt (IIRC it was about £50 extra) and those so equipped are shown on the V5C as five seater cars, so no insurance issues. Still a bit cramped for three full-size adults, but less so than a 500 would be, as the Panda deasn't curve in like the 500 at the top.
