Fiat 124 Spider Lusso MultiAir Manual Just 2k miles

Highlights

• Exceptionally low-mileage

• Six-speed manual gearbox with leather-gaitered shifter

• Fresh cam belt, water pump, full service and four new tyres in 2026

• Original 2018 dealer sales invoice, owner's handbook and two keys present

• Almost as new!

Overview

Following Fiat's 2012 announcement to revive the 124 Spider nameplate, the resulting car featured new bodywork designed to bridge the gap to the original Pininfarina-designed 124 Sport Spider of 1966, underpinned with running gear developed jointly with Mazda. Under the bonnet sits Fiat's own MultiAir turbocharged 1.4-litre four, producing 140 bhp and 177 lb ft, matched to a six-speed manual gearbox driving the rear wheels. It may but true that it’s more boulevardier than barnstormer, but the 124 is a car built for warm evenings, winding roads and roof-down fun.

The Lusso trim on this example features a full leather interior, heated seats, climate control, body-coloured mirror caps, chrome-ringed turbine-style air vents and twin chrome-tipped exhausts, all combining to give it a more grown-up, grand-touring feel. For anyone whose idea of a perfect Sunday involves sunset cruising rather than apex hunting, it's the one to have.

This particular car is finished in white over saddle tan quilted leather with cream contrast stitching, and rides on 17-inch 15-spoke silver alloys shod in fresh Bridgestone Potenza Sport rubber. Inside, you'll find heated seats and Mazda-derived MZD Connect infotainment. The overall impression from the photos is genuinely fresh.

Then there's the mileage. Having seen only light use and dry-stored between 2022 and 2025, there’s just 2,023 miles on the clock, confirmed by a continuous paper trail running from the original sales invoice of March 2018 (recording 650 miles at first transfer) through three MOT readings up to the current certificate. Better still, the big-ticket maintenance is already in the rear-view mirror: fresh cam belt and water pump in February 2026, full service and MOT in January 2026, new Mopar battery, and four matching tyres the same month. In short, it’s as close as you're likely to come to a brand new one at this stage so if one of these takes your fancy, then surely this is the one to have.

Summary

Open-top, rear-wheel drive, six-speed manual, tan leather, white paint and barely 2,000 miles under its belt. The Lusso MultiAir is the 124 Spider at its most indulgent, a properly Italian take on the Fiat-Mazda joint venture that trades hard-edged intent of the racier MX-5s for relaxed, grand-touring character. It's a rarer sight on UK roads than the MX-5 it shares its bones with, and examples this fresh, with this much documentation and this much recent preventative work, simply don't appear often.

Cam belt done, water pump done, tyres done, service done, MOT until January 2027. The hard yards are behind it. All that's left is to pick a warm Sunday, drop the roof and find a road worth the trip.
