Hi All

I am looking at an 18 month old Abarth 500 for sale at a dealership.

Most of the reviews online were written around 2009ish based on brand new cars but I would be interested in some honest reviews from owners of the vehicle after a few years in - particularly in terms of reliability, running/maintenance costs etc.

Any reviews much appreciated!

Thanks

Thanks for the responses - much appreciated.

The Dealership told me it wasn't necessary to get any of the servicing done at Abarth dealers and I could use any garage I wanted. Spoke to a reliable local garage and they said there were no issues and they would be happy to work on an Abarth.

I am right in thinking you no longer have to take it to Abarth aren't I?

Had a Mini Cooper S previously and I don't want to get stung with the same through the roof cash for servicing etc.

Cheers
