This is proof Matt does secretly know what he’s doing. Winter is a great time to buy a convertible, and Spring is a good time to sell a convertible, so when (if) Spring hits, it should be decent profit. What is it with Automotive RUclipsrs and Abarth 595’s at the moment? This is the third video on one recently!
Saying that your right. I did sell a convertible last Jan or Feb. Guys came from France to look for a convertible and sold it within a day. This time though it looks like car prices have fallen so hopefully mat got this car for a price which he can still make profit on without the dreaded price drops
In 2009 I bought one of the very first Abarths a 500 esseesse. After a Porsche 911 - the Abarth was much more fun (and more reliable!). I had a short shift gear change from Selspeed fitted and I can recommend this upgrade, you get a much faster and neater gear change. I have owned many different cars and can honestly say 'these are great little cars' 👍
No overspend, no new mats, no mechanical issues and no fluid changes! That’s all well and good Matt but no number plate change 😮 I’ll have to go and lay down for a while 😂 New year new profit margins 🤞🏻😀
I love these, worked for Fiat/ Abarth a few years back. Nerd fact. All the cars come as 595 and when you want uprated versions, they have exhaust, suspension, brakes remaps metal pedals fitted at the dealer. Very nice little jobs, some have 220/250bhp they are bonkers!
@@gazzertrn yes, they call them the 695 Biposto. Come with 2 seats and a roll cage, 190bhp as standard with option to map. They are completely bonkers.
@@gazzertrn I have a turismo, came standard with 165bhp. Fitted some induction mods & a new back section exhaust. Had a tune done on a rolling road, dyno'd at 215bhp. It does shift when you put your foot down
@gazzertrn it is said that in Italy,most Italians owning an Abarth,program it to stage 3,getting, ofc in my country I can't say I've seen it happening,but the usual 180hp is great
Give. That is one of my favourite cars. Issue: insurance. I can buy the car, I cannot afford to insure it. Solution: get older. I hate insurance companies.
"The tyres shouldn't be to expensive on these Little 17" wheels" here's me thinking back to my first car a 1976 Mini Clubman with 10" wheels 🤣. How things change. My current 2023 Karoq has 19" wheels as standard. 😂 A friend of mine who is a big brawny firefighter has the hardtop version and he loves it. That will fly away I think and someone will get a great deal. 👍
Fantastic to finally see you in an abarth 595 at last matt, I've owned one for 3 years and done many mods to it including wheels, suspension, exhaust, re map and carbon fiber body parts. Ok it's only a 1.4 litre but it's such fun to drive and always excites getting behind the wheel. Although made in poland mine is my small red italian sports car. I love my abarth 595.
Had one for six years, and will probably get another one day. They're great cars that are so easy to customise. Once you know what to look for, you never see two the same!
Only thing I’ve found is that it could really do with a 6th gear. Motorway driving can get a bit annoying with the engine noise but otherwise they’re brilliant
@@patchrick6776 100% - it's definitely one of the things that holds it back as a 'daily'. That and the ride quality. 😜 I don't know why Abarth didn't add a 6 speed with the facelift, it would have probably sold better as a result - although it always seems to sell well anyway, so maybe they couldn't be bothered!
Nice little “Abart”… think that’s a base 595 145bhp. But it has an upgraded 7” infotainment and those are Turismo spec wheels. So really good spec. Must be driven in sport mode for max smiles per hour 😊 (had two of them and still an enthusiast).
Matt, the first question has to be... Do you need one for each foot? Quite an eye-catching little car with a bit of rarity value. It should sell fairly pronto (see what I did there?)
Great video Matt... I own an Abarth 595 Scorpioneoro and although i know you`ve often said you`re not a hot hatch fan i always thought if you had the chance you`d enjoy driving an Abarth 595... You could not hide that grin! aside from that these cars are quite well built and providing you service them regularly using the correct oil the motors will do big miles, i love them..
That 595 Abarth is just short of 1100kg - I had a FIAT UNO Turbo back in the day with a 1.4 turbo petrol engine. That weighed under 850kg - that with the lack of safety features was borderline lethal - great fun though
@@jt-hb8lhanything around the 1000kg mark these days is considered very light indeed. At 1.1 ton you need to bear in mind the power to weight ratio. The old Uno would still spank a 595 today to 100.
I am not a Fiat fan after many bad experiences selling them over the years, however, I love these little 500 Abarths! They are like little go carts and are as close as we come to a modern-day 205 Gti. Watching your video, I found it very funny that straight after you got flashed with the 'SLOW DOWN' sign an advert came on RUclips for Injury Lawyers for You! 😂😂😂😂 Love it.
Be cautious with the roof! I bought a 500 Abarth convertible last summer for my missus. The very next morning a clip broke in the roof. Turns out it’s a common problem which is ridiculously expensive to repair. Fiat wanted £7000 for a new roof. The dealership we got it from was great but after 2 attempts to fix the roof they agreed to keep the car and refund. Great car, I personally really like them but I would get a hardtop
Would love to see an Up! GTI on the channel! I really want one as my first car, but they've held their value ridiculously well and are still way to expensive!
Forced to agree.... None of us are used to this. Sensible Matt is going to take some time to get used to. Not massively overspending might hurt t-shirt sales. That would be unfortunate.
Ford owners - "I get my car serviced annually by my local garage" Fiat owners - "You mean I have to change the oil, even though my car is new?" BMW owners - "My car drains the oil all by itself, I just top-up every week." Vauxhall owners - "What is engine oil?"
Nice going! I’d been curious about Abarth, so I enjoyed this, thank you. I think this rather top outcome insures you against the inevitable mid year Range Rover spasm!
Cheap to me Matt is a car for a a grand ( cheapie / bargain basement / shi#a ) - £7800 must be cheap for this newer summer fun fast Fiat ( Abarth ) !!!!
I did toy with the idea of one of these. Went for my swift sport instead as the ride is significantly better. Would be great to see one on the channel at some point 😆- great video as always Matt 👍
When my wife noticed you were smiling I explained it was because you’re driving a cute fun car - she thinks it’s because you have met someone ! Great video as always
Their build quality unfortunately is horrendous. Still a Fiat! Otherwise great little cars with a high performing, tuneable engine. Great video! As usual 😊.
I overtook one of these the other day. The driver seemed to be 'giving it loads' with the exhaust popping and banging as my Saab serenely sailed past, wondering what all the fuss was about. That said, I do quite like them!
How much power in your SAAB cus you wouldnt pass me "serenely" in one. Youd have to be popping and banging your SAAB off the rev limiter unless youre running 450-500bhp. That said I think on comfort your SAAB does win hands down.
Most of them sound like they give it the beans when they don't. A sports exhaust and the mapped in pops and bangs by the manufacturer will give that illusion. Having had a go with one, i'd they are quicker than most Saab models. Unlesd yours is the GM engined turbo model, some of them had over 200bhp from the factory iirc
Great little cars, I had four, Berlina's (Hard Top) As others have said "Base" with the 17" wheel upgrade, 145 BHP Great fun for two, or maybe a 2+2, tend to come fitted with Pirellis. I had one with Michelins and they are the best tyres for these cars. The mats are standard fitment. Some people think the first service is after two years, should be yearly. The ride isn't that bad, the Comp is stiffer Best smiles per pound you can get We could all see the grin on your face! They're a cheeky terrier of a car
Had one of these in the 165hp 'Turismo' spec, also a 68 plate. Lovely little machine but just couldn't get on with the seating position after a year or so - and I'm only 5'8". Since bought a Fiesta ST which is better in every single way bar being less charming/characterful.
Funny how you think this is expensive. Go to mainland Europe and even by adding 50% on top of this one's asking price you won't find an equivalent car for sale.
Talking of 1.4/1.5 turbo's, my Sister had a 2010/11 Mitsubishi Colt Ralliart (5 door). What a weapon that was! Big mistake not buying it off her. Now rare.
i hope this isn’t another video without an ending or conclusion, i feel your videos don’t show the outcome of your deals.. feel kinda robbed watching them.
Got one of these for the wife and liked it at first but soon got sick of it as always felt you were sitting on it and not in it and handling was quite fidgity. Looks like first owner could have voided warranty as ours had to be serviced every 9000 miles.
Right hand drive market. Can't export the cars to the mainland so easily because of that. And the same goes for importing from the mainland. LHD doesn't sell well in UK.
Spiritual successor to the R5 GT Turbo, Uno Turbo Ie and Punto GT Turbo. Because of this I love them and would deffo have one if I could make sense of a 2nd car - they are tiny!
There was one of these competing at my local hillclimb event. It was setting some good times on the tight twisty track, looked like fun. I kind of want one!
I've got a 1.2 petrol ka (not a flex) but for my needs it's perfect as a second car, cheap to run, insure and tax, ideal for city parking and with the seats down a surprisingly good tip run car. Tiny cars are ace!
I have a 595 Comp, and 5 years timing belts due. There great little motors and great fun, but very delicate. You’ve got to keep on top of these cars otherwise things will go wrong and there not cheap to repair.
I knew 7 mins into the video that it would be a winner. 160hp and 183lb-ft of torque is great fun for a car that weighs not much more than a bag of sugar 🤣

Solution: get older.
I hate insurance companies.
Lol it’s not even a 1.4
It’s one of the easiest cars to steal, any potential buyer will need to put an immobiliser on it if they want to keep it.
Pirelli P Zeros are garbage. This car is also due a timing belt, Needs doing every 5 years or 100k miles whichever comes first

How much are you charging mr Wonder Grip to park his van in the car park to get free advertising in all you videos

Excellent video Matt and very pleased you bought a banger ha ha.Hope you get half a million subs this year you deserve it .
The Abarth 595 is a superb choice Matt, it needs the Essesse kit to give it a bit more Umph 👍

Where do you get a full set of Pirelli's for £344? One Bridgestone on my Astra costs £250.

Can we have the other Matt back please, this one’s no fun.Lanzared.
Why put budget tyres on a sports car; I'll never understand the logic
Posers buy such cars for the looks and the sound.
According to my Italian mate from Genoa; Abarth is pronounced 'Abart' ie drop the 'H' on the end!
Very interesting . I was always interested in the Abarth . The FIAT Spyder 124 would also be interesting if you could get your hands on one .
Jesus christ....so many people in the comments section have an issue with this car.
I did toy with the idea of one of these. Went for my swift sport instead as the ride is significantly better. Would be great to see one on the channel at some point 😆- great video as always Matt 👍
I did too...but the hard ride put me off. I can't stand any car that rides too hard.
I think we need antidote to this sensible behaviour. How about an XJ-S V12?
You take a girly car, Abarth it up, and then go have fun 😘
Cool car but why are they uninsurable? It's insurance group U so it's really expensive for some reason.
A ABARTH UNDER 8K dude is doing some deals
You should review more Hot Hatches. Shame they are thinning out
and a cambelt Mat its advised every 5 years and its a horrific job
Are you moonlighting on Traitors? 😊
You need to change your preamble, always you say you’ve not seen the vehicle then go onto car vertical already having spent money on it, in this £7k +
Had a new battery because it says Jan 7th. Oh it is Jan 7th! 😂😂
First service at 24k is bad news and its due a cambelt due to age.
A local boy has one of these and drives past my house twice a day. It bugs the shit out of me. All mouth and no trousers.

Does that Wonder Grip van have tyres coated in Wonder Grip hence it is impossible to move? They probably enjoy the free advertising you give them lol
I've got a 124 spider with the same engine, it goes like a bullet
That’s a coincidence that you have bought one of these as Lucy on Cars, was reviewing one of these last week wearing a High Peaks Auto’s top!
I watched the LOC vid too
Someone has had the strimmer out.
Great sounding engine!
Exhaust?
Who puts crap budget Grannylander tyres on modern, and comparatively expensive hot hatches? Who are these people? Why?
someone who wantgs to sell it
Who are you, and what have you done with the real Matt?
I feel the same way about the Fiat 500 that you feel abput the Citroën C4 Picasso 😂
Never owned a Fiat but these have always interested me if only for the power to weight ratio. 145bhp must be fun. 200bhp would be tyre shred city!
Brilliant little cars. Probably the most fun I have ever had on 4 wheels.
Lovely car , looks great , sounds great , good colour , good mileage. You get a lot of fun for your pounds. These are future classics.
