Fiat in Saudi Arabia is one small car in three forms: a hatchback, a folding-roof convertible and a taller crossover. The convertible is the most common body here, which tells you what the badge is bought for — looks rather than transport. The 500 has since moved to an electric generation, so the petrol cars here are the older shape. We have 8 listed across the Kingdom.
What to check on a used Fiat
On these cars the mechanical section of the inspection report is not background reading. It is the negotiation.
Small-car money for something with a personality. A 2023 500 sold at SAR 48,000, and a 2020 500C at SAR 39,000. Asking prices across our Kingdom listings run from SAR 36,000 for an early-2010s car up to SAR 58,500 for a current-year one.
Better than the running costs would lead you to assume: Fiats average about 58% of their value after five years across the models we can measure. The convertible is why: an open car has a small, steady audience here, and that keeps asking prices firm.
They need a buyer who reads the report, and the findings say so plainly. Across the Fiats we have inspected in the Kingdom, 20% show a fault in the engine, gearbox, suspension or steering against the 10% we would expect for cars of the same age and mileage here, and 14% carry an electrical fault against the 5% we would expect on the same basis. That is deferred maintenance on a low-value European small car rather than a design flaw — the jobs are small but outstanding. Have them priced before you agree a number.
