We are pleased to offer this charming example of everyone’s favourite diminutive hot hatch. ‘SC10UBY’ is a 2010 version of the 133 bhp Fiat Abarth 500 in optimal five speed manual form. Offered with an unusually sound provenance, ‘SC10UBY’ has covered a significantly below average mileage of 65,000 miles in the hands of just five registered keepers to date. The vendor acquired ‘SC10UBY’ in February 2021at around 36,500 miles. Today ‘SC10UBY’ is offered in a fine overall condition, complete with a long MOT until January 2026 and accompanying paperwork to support routine maintenance. All in all, a great example of this perennially popular pocket rocket.

‘SC10UBY’ looks superb in its combination of Pearl White paintwork, graduated black Abarth decals on both flanks, chin and boot spoilers and chunky twin, chromed tail pipes. In addition to the decals there are colourful Abarth scorpion motifs to the front, rear and both sides. The 17-inch Abarth alloy wheels help to accentuate ‘SC10UBY’s’ “wheel at each corner” sporting stance. These are centred with more Abarth scorpions and are shod in a matching set of quality Toyo Proxes in a 205/40 configuration. The vendor rates both paint and bodywork as “good.” The cabin continues to showcase ‘SC10UBY’s’ sporting status. The high backed sports seats are deeply bolstered and finished in black fabric with vivid red accents. Other tell tales of this 500’s Abarth origins are the dash mounted boost gauge with integrated gear change indicator, chunky sports leather steering wheel and aluminium clad pedals. The vendor judges the interior condition as “excellent.”

‘SC10UBY’ boasts a technical specification to match all the sporting accoutrements, too. Power is provided by a four cylinder, turbocharged and intercooled version of the 1.4-litre Fiat FIRE engine. In original specification this was rated at 133 bhp and offered 152 Ib-ft of torque in “Sport” mode. This is mated to a five speed C510 manual gearbox, lowered sports suspension and accurate electric powered steering. It appears that an uprated Ulter sports silencer and tail pipes has been fitted at some point, too. The engine, transmission and electrics are all vendor rated as “excellent.”

In summary:

· Very solid provenance with below average mileage and owners

· Offering numerous Abarth features and a mechanical specification to match

· Complete with a long MOT and accompanying paperwork
