It changed ownership shortly after, and the next owner planned to service the car on mileage. However when it got to the point of servicing it, he bought a newer Abarth 595 Scopionero edition. Being fortunate enough to be able to own both, he did. Putting this example in his garage for a while, until ultimately he conceded that it needed to go. And here we find ourselves!

A very healthy amount of receipts and invoices from various servicing and work carried out over the years including a cambelt change in 2022.

We even have the original new car invoice from the first owner! How lovely.

It’s a car of tremendous character, and we truly believe a future classic, specifically the Essesse cars.

It drives without fault, driving straight and true with no knocks or rattles, it will not disappoint!

We hope it goes to someone who will love it as much as the previous owners did!
