Description:
An unrepeatable opportunity to acquire a true time-capsule modern classic survivor.
This rare 3-door Fiat Stilo Abarth has covered a mere 22, 000 miles from new under the care of just one single owner.
Powered by the charismatic, mechanical 2. 4-litre 5-cylinder engine producing 170BHP, this car delivers authentic Italian "grinta" and a wonderful engine note that is entirely missing from modern hatchbacks. Superb acceleration & handling. Top speed 134 mph.
Crucially, despite its displacement, this vehicle is officially 100% ULEZ compliant and exempt from all London emission zone charges - making it a usable urban cruiser or a highly collectible investment.

The car is in good condition throughout, reflecting its incredibly low mileage and life spent garage-stored. It drives beautifully with sharp responses, tight handling, and all the character you would expect from a low-mileage Abarth flagship

Some rust along the bottom edge of the rear window has been painted over

This car was previously listed a couple of years ago when it was showing an Engine Fault - simply fixed by replacing spark plugs and ignition coils. No issues since then. The car is garaged and has only ever been used for local journeys, so the Abarth engine is in great condition. I'll be sad to part with it. Despite criticism from some pistonheads, I found it outperformed the Honda Civic Hot Hatch Type R in 2004, even though, on paper, the Honda was more powerful at 197bhp and I've had no reason to regret that choice!
