Newbie here and not sure if this is the place but here goes....


Looking at buying a Fiat 500 Abarth 2013 with 41K
never owned a Fiat but really love them
wondering what thing(s) if any I should be looking for or be concerned about with this model and year

any and all advise would be great and thanks
 
Full abarth or specialist service history, not had any probs with our 64 plate but only done 17000 and mature owner, not many abarth owners here I look at FB pages more happening there as most bought by the youth, look for local abarth groups as well, got one in Norfolk and a great specialist, try to avoid dealers for work.
Top mounts seem to go, sumps rust, stitching on seats look for signs of any work under bonnet, many will have been fitted with tuning boxes, different exhausts, different alloys, etc although most remove before sale going by the amount for sale on other sites.
Many many get stolen (which is unbelievably easy) service at specialist if possible, use correct oil, and most important check for crash damage.
