Description
Fiat 500C TwinAir 105 | Black Leather | Red Roof | Diamond Cut Alloys | Enthusiast Owned
This is a rare spec Fiat 500C TwinAir 105 in a great colour combo, and it's been looked after properly. We bought it in 2024 after a long search and intended to keep it long term, so it's had the sort of maintenance most 500s never see. No "smart" repairs, no hidden paint, nothing covered up - just an honest car in original condition.
HIGHLIGHTS
105bhp TwinAir. The most powerful non-Abarth 500, paired with the 6-speed gearbox.
Black leather interior - extremely rare on a 500C
Red fabric roof - perfect working order, maintained with G-Techniq water repellent coating
Chrome pack + side strips
Tinted windows
Uconnect 5" with DAB - far better than the older Blue&Me systems
First facelift year - timeless body and improved headlights
RECENT MAINTENANCE (all early this year)
All the kind of work you do when you plan to keep a car:
Professionally refurbished, diamond cut alloys. Ceramic coated for easy cleaning
New premium all-season tyres (Vredestein Quatrac 6, 2025 date stamp) - chosen for year-round safety and kerb protection
New aircon condenser (high-quality NRF) + fresh re-gas
New engine radiator (Denso OEM) - replaced pro-actively while the front end was apart
Coolant flush and new expansion tank. Again, pro-active work.
New Brembo brake discs & pads all round
Air filter, and TwinAir oil/filter service including MultiECUScan oil reset
New auxiliary belt (Continental)
Upgraded chassis-to-gearbox earth strap (common corrosion point, now future-proofed)
My previous maintenance includes:
- AGM battery (Exide) - start/stop works
- Gearbox oil change
- Pollen filter
- Interior fan speed resistor pack (a notoriously awkward job - now sorted)
The common UV-faded high level brake light panel has been wrapped in matching red - looks fantastic.
CONDITION:
Original paintwork, no "smart" repairs
Light age-related marks on the bumpers (touched in, low down)
A few tiny dings consistent with age
Bonnet has lacquer peel - purely cosmetic. Replacement bonnets in the correct colour are GBP 80-120 from breakers if you want it perfect.
Drives perfectly: eager engine full of character, smooth gearbox, no knocks, tight suspension, economical, and great fun with the roof down.
Only selling because we need a bigger car (first baby arrived in April and we wrongly assumed we would manage).
