Insight summary

Abarth 595 is a scarce model in this snapshot, with 17,483 represented vehicles and 0.04% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 83.1% from 101,286 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 51. The current pool shows an average of 42,885 miles and an average age of 7.6 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 55,272 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by other, and the most frequent defect themes are engine warning light, windscreen damage and tyre condition. The practical read is that the Abarth 595 looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
