MITICA, the Italian resin specialist, has produced a \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e replica of the 1986 100S variant — the higher-output iteration of a car that Bertone designed and converted in-house on the Fiat 138 platform. Grey Metallic was one of the factory-offered exterior colours during the 1984–1986 production window, and the 1986 car sits at the very end of the Ritmo model line before the Fiat Tipo took over in 1988.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-ritmo-supercabrio\"\u003eA Bertone Convertible, Not a Factory Option\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fiat Ritmo Supercabrio was not a simple production variant: Bertone carried out the full open-top conversion in-house, reinforcing the sill structure to compensate for the removed roof and fitting a soft folding hood. The car debuted at the 1982 Geneva Motor Show and went on sale in limited numbers through Fiat dealerships. Fewer than 2,000 units were produced across all variants, placing the Supercabrio in genuinely rare territory for a mainstream European compact of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-100s-specification\"\u003eThe 100S: Final-Year Performance Tune\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 100S designation identifies the higher-output engine option: a 1,498 cc SOHC inline-four producing approximately 100 CV (around 105 hp). The 1986 model year represents the closing phase of Ritmo production, which ended when Fiat introduced the Tipo in 1988. As a late-run, higher-specification open car built by one of Italy's foremost coachbuilders, the 100S Supercabrio carries a combination of scarcity and Bertone provenance that few 1980s Italian road cars can match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"mitica-1-18-resin-model\"\u003eMITICA: Resin Craft for the Overlooked Italian Car\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMITICA is an Italian specialist known for producing \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e resin models of rare Italian road cars that mainstream diecast producers have never catalogued. The resin construction is standard for the brand and allows precise surface detail across the bodywork. The model length is 21.5 cm, computed directly from the real car's 3,940 mm body length divided by the scale factor of 18. Opening parts are not confirmed for this release; detail is concentrated on the exterior surfaces, including the soft-top hood and reinforced sill lines characteristic of the Bertone conversion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"display-and-collection\"\u003eIn the Display Cabinet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 21.5 cm in length, this \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e model fits a standard single-car display shelf without difficulty. It pairs naturally with other MITICA releases covering Italian road cars of the same period, and sits well alongside Bertone-bodied subjects such as the Fiat X1\/9 or Ritmo-based performance variants. For collectors focusing on 1980s Italian road cars or open-top coachbuilt specials, the Supercabrio 100S occupies a gap that no other \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e resin model currently fills.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MITICA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60132680761728,"sku":"MITICA103065","price":138.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-mitica103065-front34-v2_85d36c03-046e-4f94-86a4-0a8f754a97e9.jpg?v=1792144209","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/products\/fiat-ritmo-bertone-supercabrio-100s-1986-grey-met-nostra-esclusiva","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
