As there are a few who few on here who are fans of the guilietta, i shall offer mine here first.

Only selling as it’s not insurable for the new driver in the household once the test is passed, and there’s no room for any more cars!

Its a 61 plate, so the manual gearbox one, 1.75 235bhp (feels like more tbh, it’s really quite punchy), the later 2014 on cars were all TCT auto. Quite a rare car actually, only 6-700 manuals I believe.

I’ve had it nearly 4 years, bought from my best mate who also had it 4 years so i‘ve know it for 8 years. No accident damage, all original paint/panels. 2 previous owners. 2 keys, all books.

Options from new;
Full leather, with red stiching (expensive option)
Elec fold mirrors
Rear parking sensors

Service history as follows

sept 13 15696mls
oct 14 29010mls
may 15 40481mls
jan 16 51449mls
aug 16 60154mls (Timing belt at 62k - 5 yrs)
apr 17 70088mls
jan 18 80275mls
feb 19 90445mls
sept 20 95888mls
oct 21 100497mls (Timing belt again - 10 yrs)

Currently on 104400 or so, but still in use. Also had 4 new uniroyal rain sport 5 tyres in sept 21 too, so less than 5k miles on those.

It’s been a great car for me, never let me down, 30-35mpg, an excellent daily to keep the miles off the other ‘high maintenance’ stablemates!

A few minor marks of course, but excellent condition, interior is virtually unmarked.

In these odd times for second hand values I’m looking for £6000, which I think is about right with good history, new timing belt and tyres. Plus, it’s a steal compared to what I’m having to pay for an 80hp fiesta!

Pics are a couple of years old but it looks the same, I’ll put some new ones up at weekend.

Looks nice, I'm trying to sell mine too which is in 8C Rosso competizione with pan roof.
Have you tried the Giulietta Enthusiasts group on Facebook?

No, I’ve not advertised it yet on more mainstream places. I need to sort myself out to be honest, I need to move with the times and get on these social media platforms to sell privately! I always used to use autotrader, but that doesn’t seem to be the place for private sales these days.

I hope yours is more expensive than mine though with 8C paint and a pan roof!
You had any luck on the guilietta site?

Nothing wrong with Autotrader- it has many more viewers than the enthusiast sites.

Not had any real interest since I sold it to a total time waster and just gave him his money back 2 days later as the engine light came on. It doesn't like the new E5 fuel being remapped.

Mine also has factory xenon's and the heated, electric memory leather seats so it's pretty loaded. I'd take 7k for it just to free up driveway space right now lol

Must advertise it again. Did you try ebay? I find it's full of changers offers 40% under what you advertise it for !!

I might try pistonheads as I have a long standing account and think I get free adverts.

Autotrader is still fine. I sold the masser via it and a couple of others last year.

Ebay is offers send stupid questions and FB marketplace is a no no for high value in my opinion. Full of scammers and dreamers.

Maybe I’ll give autotrader a go after all. Seems less than 10% are private sales now, was it always that way?
I could also use pistonheads too, but I guess nowhere near as many viewers as autotrader.
Either way, I should put it up somewhere mainstream if I want to sell it!
As a side issue, decided to do a gentle run to work today in it, with fuel being so expensive. I got 41mpg! Not bad I thought.

They are great cars, I still love driving mine and can be fuel efficient when needed. GLWS.

Then slip it into dynamic mode and its a totally different animal..
