Fiat 500 Sport 2014

Description

So, my wife decided she wanted a different car and I ended up with this little 2014 Fiat 500 Sport. It’s not flashy, but it’s actually a real joy to drive — tight, responsive, and just the right amount of character. I’ve been using it for a few years now and it’s been reliable, even with 78k miles. Last MOT was 12 months ago and tax is just £20 a year, so it’s not a huge commitment.

It’s got a twin air 85hp engine, sports exhaust, blue & me hands-free with Bluetooth and voice controls, and a 7-inch screen. The seats are sports style, there’s a rear spoiler and side skirts, and the doors have electric mirrors with defrost. Everything’s covered — airbags, ABS, fog lights, start/stop, and even the front suspension was replaced about a year ago.

I’ve got two keys and the rear seats fold down easily. Tinted windows, climate control, height-adjustable steering and seats, remote lock — you name it, it’s there. And yes, I still keep it in Beaworthy, West Devon.

It’s not perfect, but it’s been a solid little companion. Just not the right fit anymore for my wife, so I’m passing it on. Price is £3,420 — fair for what it is.
