Abarth 695 Tributo Ferrari
Why 4.8: Abarth built roughly 1,700 of these worldwide — Ferrari-spec Rosso Corsa paint, 180 hp from the familiar 1.4 turbo four, a nod to the historical link between Carlo Abarth and Enzo Ferrari — and priced them at about $47,000. A recent record sale of $165,000 says the collector market found it; the ordinary used-hatch market it came from says most are still just driven.

Child seats · ISOFIX
Two ISOFIX positions on the outer rear seats, the outer pair being the ones the standard covers.
The rear anchors are the supported route — the manual points child seats there, and front-passenger ISOFIX is the exception rather than the rule. A belt-mounted seat up front needs the airbag off, and cars with a rear row don't always fit a deactivation switch, precisely because the rear seats exist.
Derived from production years and seating layout, not a per-car source. ISOFIX was standardised as ISO 13216 in 1997, required on new EU model types from 2011 and on all new EU cars from 2014.
The long version
The Tributo Ferrari traded on a real if slightly stretched piece of history: Abarth built exhaust systems for Maranello for decades, and Carlo Abarth's and Enzo Ferrari's careers followed oddly parallel arcs, driver to tuner to constructor. Abarth leaned into that connection hard for this special edition, finishing most of the run in Ferrari's own Rosso Corsa red with twin white stripes, badging it 695 for the (rounded) displacement in cubic centimeters per cylinder, and building around 1,700 worldwide — split across color runs of 1,198 red, 299 yellow and 99 each in two rarer colors — with only 152 right-hand-drive cars reaching the UK. At launch it cost about £29,600, roughly $47,000, for a Fiat 500-based hatchback with 180 hp and a proper Ferrari-red paint job, which struck contemporary reviewers as a lot of money and mostly still did for the first decade of used-market life, when clean examples traded in the $30,000-$55,000 range. That's shifted hard recently: a numbered, low-mileage example sold for a record $165,000 in early 2025, more than three times the original sticker, as the wider modern-classic-hot-hatch market discovered numbered Abarths the way it had already discovered numbered Renaults and Peugeots. Most surviving cars are still ordinary enough — a hot 500 with some paint and stripes — that plenty of owners still just drive them; the ones setting records increasingly don't.
