[For Sale] Abarth 500C Auto / Paddle Shift, Low Mileage
Hi, just wondering if this might be of any interest to someone as with regret the time has come to sell our Abarth 500C.
We have owned it since brand new but it was pre-registered in the showroom.
1st Reg. September 2011, Full Abarth service history, MOT until Sept. 2019. Never had any problems with the car at all.
Just turned onto 30,000 miles.
Monza Exhaust as well as brand new original if reqd. TMC Tuning box fitted.
New BLACK EBC 3GD Series Dimpled and Slotted Sport Discs and Yellow Stuff pads fitted all round approx 800 miles ago.
Needs to go in the next couple of weeks as the wife new car will hopefully be ready. The Abarth is just to small for needs of her and the Grand Children.
Looking for £7500 ono for quick sale.
Any questions please get in touch, Located just outside Leicester. More photos can be Emailed or WhatsApp if reqd
Cheers
Phil

Ace! Good luck with the sale. Had a very similar car what an absolute load of fun. Correct colour car and wheels, Xenons, paddles, auto, low miles, what more could anyone ask Captain Nick Medhurst would ask:

Just an update.
I have been offered £6500 part exchange on the car without the Monza Exhaust and Tuning Module so if anyone is interested at that sort of price please get in touch.
If thats a px price the car is obviously worth quite a bit more.
I have a spare set of wheels also to negotiate on.
Cheers

I'd get stuck in all the traffic, but much faster!

I may be wrong, but based on the model and the mileage, I'd put the real trade in value at just below £6k. That makes the offer you have received look like a good one.... but make sure that you are not subsequently overpaying for the one you may be exchanging for!Not such a Disco Newbie now!

just goes to show that the free valuation sites that are supposed to be based on CAP / Glasses pricing are a load of twaddle!Not such a Disco Newbie now!

^ Not true actually. Free valuation sites that use CAP are pretty accurate. Try Parkers.co.uk ...https://www.parkers.co.uk/

It's your bread and butter so I don't wish to argue, but Glasses figures provided via a well know comparison site came in at £5851 trade in, £6780 private sale - surely they shouldn't differ so much?
I'm genuinely interested as I'm trying to get into the car trade!Not such a Disco Newbie now!

The industry uses CAP as do most free and paid for online valuation systems. I know of no dealers using Glasses guide other than possibly the very low end auction lot .
