Why Buy a Used Fiat 500?

Typical Price Range
All prices are approximate.
- 2008–2014: £1,500 – £4,500 — Early examples are plentiful; ensure the V5C reflects correct owner history and check the MOT record for recurring suspension issues.
- 2015–2020: £5,000 – £11,500 — Post-facelift models with improved infotainment and LED daytime running lights; many remain under low mileage.
- 2021–Present: £13,000 – £24,000 — Covers the Mild Hybrid variants and the latest 'New 500' full EV models, which command a premium.
Common Issues to Check
- Door handles are notorious for snapping or coming loose; ensure the hinges are lubricated and firm.
- Electrical gremlins in the tailgate wiring loom can cause issues with rear lights and the boot release.
- The 1.2-litre engine requires timing belt changes every 5 years or 60,000 miles to avoid catastrophic failure.
- Suspension components, particularly front wishbones and rear shock absorbers, wear quickly on UK speed bumps.
Running Costs
- Fuel Economy: 45–60 mpg for petrol; up to 199-mile range for the 42kWh Electric version
- Insurance Group: Groups 5 to 15 for standard models; higher for Abarth performance variants
- Servicing: Typical minor service at an independent garage costs £120–£180; major service closer to £300.
Which Variant Should I Choose?
