Description
This is my wife's Abarth 500 which she adores. She always wanted one and I liked the idea of owning a nippy mini hatchback despite the fact we are both into our 40's and have two teenage children which is partly why we are now having to move it on (it's not ideal for a family but we chose to ignore that when buying it).
The main reason is my wife's aggravated an old knee injury which means she can no longer drive a manual.
The car is in great condition inside and out and has been meticulously maintained boasting a full service history (cambelt & water pump due next year). Loads of paper work and stamps in the book.
It came with Abarth floor mats including in the boot. A Magneti Marelli cat back exhaust system which is a must on these. We have since added a stage 1 Celtic tune done by AR autos who are an Abarth specialist, you're thinking why would a middle aged couple remap there car? Because it makes the world of difference to these especially on a motorway for overtaking etc and it now pulls so much nicer in all gears. We don't "rag" it around but it's nice to know it's there if needed.
I also added an after market immobiliser (key fob operated), an Xtrons apple car play head unit, H&R suspension springs as the old ones were tired which were supplied and fitted by Small Car Services who are another Abarth specialist, and 4 brand new 17 inch Essesse alloy wheels from Italy which has 4 brand new GT radial sport active 2 tyres on, one of which I ever so slightly grazed a curb with the very day they were fitted which my wife wasn't pleased about but it's barely noticeable in fairness (in pictures).
We've loved owning this car it looks the part, sounds the part and drives superb. We even joined the local Abarth club and became enthusiasts so we will be sad to see it go but needs must unfortunately.
The number plate is a private plate and will be retained and put back on its original plate.
