The FIAT 500 (2008-16) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.4 16V 100 SPORT is a small, three-door city car with distinctive retro styling and a sportier feel than many basic runabouts. In the UK used-car market, it sits among fashionable small hatchbacks, offering easy town manoeuvring and a compact footprint rather than family-car space. mycarcheck.com records 1,914 look-ups covering 744 VINs, showing strong interest in this version. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £2,500 and average recorded mileage of 85,000 miles, with around 5,000 miles driven annually. The average keeper count is just over five, helpful context when assessing an individual car’s history. The 1.4-litre SPORT feels livelier than entry-level 500s, while its compact, friendly nature suits town commuters, couples and first-time buyers. It is less suited to growing families or bulky loads. Compared with rivals such as the MINI, this Fiat stands out for Italian charm, personalisation and relatively accessible used-car prices.
