The OSI 1200S has been ne of the beneficiary of the Fiat 1100 chassis on which many coachbuilt cars have been built. This car has been built in 280 specimens and this has the chassis #250.

This is the second green Urraco published here; the other one was a P200 while this one is a P250, not as rare as its bigger sister, the P300, but not common at all.
