The ABARTH 595 CABRIO (2016-21) 2DR CONVERTIBLE 1.4 T-JET 180 EU6 COMPETIZIONE AUTO5 is a sporty convertible based on the Fiat 500, sitting in the UK’s city-car market rather than serving as a family car. Its folding roof brings open-air appeal while keeping the dimensions suited to urban parking. The Competizione is the punchier, more focused choice, with a 1.4-litre turbo engine and automatic gearbox giving it more character than typical city cars. It suits commuters, couples and enthusiasts looking for fun weekend use or everyday driving; rear space and luggage room are limited, so families may find it restrictive. Mycarcheck.com records 108 look-ups covering 51 different VINs, offering a snapshot: checked cars averaged 22,000 miles and 5,000 miles annually, with around 1.4 previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation was £13,500. Against rivals such as the MINI Convertible, this Abarth stands out for cheeky Italian styling, character and open-top fun.
