Description
For sale is my 1997 Fiat Cinquecento Sporting, in Broom Yellow.
I've owned it for the last 2 years, there were 5 previous owners.
It's been well looked after by all the owners, as evidenced by the pictures.
It's done just over 66, 400 miles which is backed up by the service invoices and the MOT history online (please note this mileage may increase a little as it will still be driven every week for fun!).
It is a late model with a (pointless, given the body structure!) drivers airbag, but no PAS or ABS.
Audio is the basic radio cassette it came with as standard. No extra speakers, subs, etc.
It's a pretty standard car in all respects, Trigger's broom notwithstanding.
It comes with two blue keys and the red key which is required to make new keys (at a dealer).
The owner's handbook is provided, together with a Haynes manual.
The bodywork is in good condition with no rust visible through the paint.
There are many small marks, such as stone chips, minor dimples, etc., but you have to be close to see most of them.
In general, it presents very well.
The alloy wheels were refurbed a few years ago, and they are still in excellent condition.
The interior is in very good condition.
There is a slight sagging of the material on the driver's seat base, and the driver's bolster material had almost rubbed through before a small black fabric patch was stuck on as a preventative measure.
All the plastics, trim, etc., are in very good condition for the age.
Mechanically, she is in good condition and there is a lot of paperwork to back up the service history.
