Welcome to my Sale
Purchased
new by the first lady owner, from the supplying Fiat and Abarth dealer, Thomas
Motor Group in Slough. She drove the car very infrequently during her
ownership. So much so that the car was stored in the garage, mostly unused.
Finally making the decision to sell, her friend jumped at the chance to
purchase the car as she loved the 124 model. She became the new owner on the 23rd
of June 2021 with a speedometer reading of just 919 miles. She continued to own
the car until April this year when I finally took ownership with just 7605
miles on the milometer.
My Fiat
124 Roadster was serviced on the 17th of July 2018 by the Fiat main
agent, Stoneacre Fiat of Lincoln with a milometer reading of just 814 miles. Stoneacre
Fiat also service the car again on the 3rd of February 2023. The milometer
reading was 7553 miles. Since purchasing the car, I have treated the
convertible roof which is water tight. And more importantly, I have replaced
the timing belt, water pump, anti-freeze and the often-overlooked multi-air
filter. The work was completed by McLennan Garage of Loanhead, with a milometer
reading of 8772 miles. They are a Fiat and Alfa Romeo specialist workshop.
Additionally,
I have just had a new service and MOT completed at 12861 miles. This was all
done on the 28th of March this year. No advisories were recorded on
the new MOT certificate.
I completely
adore this Fiat 124 Spider. It was a very special treat to myself as I have
wanted one since Fiat introduced it back in 2016. A purchase of the heart.
Unveiled at
the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. This Fiat Anniversary model was designed to
commemorate the 50th anniversary of the unveiling of the original
roadster in Turin, 1966. This exclusive edition of which only 124 numbered

On the
Road: The car
starts on the first press of the starter button. As soon as you drive off you
will realise what a special car this is. The gears change easily with a
weighted feel. The engine runs smooth and is remarkably quiet. There is a pleasing
exhaust note when you push her on with the roof down. And a good turn of power
having 140bhp. The steering is tight and positive and the suspension and ride
quality is exceptional. The Two-ply convertible roof lining keeps the interior
cabin quiet. The brake pads and discs are all in excellent order and work
perfectly. All the electrics are in excellent working order. My spider drives
as the factory intended. There are no faults at all.
The
Boot Compartment: Like
brand new. The interior carpet is perfect. There is a repair kit included. The
boot compartment is illuminated.
The
Engine Compartment: The engine and surrounding panels are completely free from oil and dirt.
The engine compartment is stunning. Please see my pictures. The engine is in
perfect working order and has no faults.
The Interior: The leather seat trim and leather
door trims are all perfect. There is no sign of wear at all. Even the seat
bolsters are perfect. The dash, door materials and trims are all in perfect
condition. The floor carpets are also in perfect condition with no wear. The
carpet pile is deep and soft. There is a set of optional branded carpet over
mats still in the car. I cannot stress how nice the interior is. It is as new.
Wheels
and Tyres: All
four alloy wheel rims are in excellent condition and still retain the factory
finish. There is a tiny kerb mark on one wheel only. It just happened recently
and is very small. The others are perfect. All tyres are in excellent condition
and have good tread depth. All four tyres are matching, quality branded
Bridgestone.
Bodywork
and General Condition: The bodywork is stunning. There are a couple of very small blemishes as
you would expect from a car that has been driven. You will probably need me to
point them out however. All the body panel gaps are exact and the panels have a
glass like finish. The paintwork has a showroom shine. The underside and
components are exceptionally clean and rock solid. All the sill plates are
unmarked and the door checks are immaculate and clean. The whole exterior is
stunning.
The
Convertible Roof:
The black cloth roof material is in perfect condition. The glass heated rear
window is also unmarked and works perfectly. The roof has two layers of
soundproofing, insulating the occupants from outside noises. Remarkably quiet,
even at motorway speeds. The roof is in perfect working order and is simple to
operate. It takes less than 10 seconds to open or close the convertible top. A
new waterproofing treatment has recently been completed.
A recent
timing belt, new service and MOT with no advisories noted. The new owner will
have nothing to do but drive her away.
As good
as you will find.
