2018 Abarth 124 Spider Multiair Auto 1.4L Petrol · FD18 EZX

The vehicle is in a roadworthy condition, showing an improving maintenance trend following several recorded concerns. The most recent inspection in August 2025 at 32,114 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the mechanical and consumable issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This represents a positive shift from the July 2024 test where multiple tyre and brake-related defects were noted. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between July 2022 and July 2023, where the car covered only 3,640 miles in twelve months. While the low annual mileage suggests reduced wear on the drivetrain and engine, the low frequency of use means the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods. This can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, as evidenced by the cracking on the nearside rear tyre recorded in 2024. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the suspension, as the 2024 test highlighted uneven wear on the offside front and rear tyres, which can indicate an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. The nearside rear service brake was also flagged as fluctuating in 2024; while this passed subsequently, the buyer should verify the brake discs are not heavily thinned or warped. Given the low mileage and the age of the car, a thorough check of the tyre sidewalls for perishing or cracking is essential to ensure the rubber remains structurally sound despite sufficient tread depth.
