Many of us have done that to people like teachers who owned a Fiat 600 or 127.

I once saw some uni students drive a Fiat 500 into an elevator in a building, take it up to the second floor, and drive it around the hallways.

You may be thinking of the Fiat 126, sort of an updated 600. The 127 was a somewhat heftier hatchback, more like a VW Polo or Ford Fiesta.

It surely was 127 - heftier, but still definitely hand-movable by a half a dozen of adolescents...

Fiat 127 is front-wheel-drive and bigger than Fiat 600, but still weighs under 700 kg.
