Re: new car FIAT Abarth 500 It's from a tuning company called g-tec iirc, sounds really good. Milltek have also done a system but it sounds abit chav

Yeh i am on the waiting list ;)

Re: new car FIAT Abarth 500 If I'm honest it feels quicker in gear but that's due to the low down torque and the gears feel alot longer escpecially in 3rd and 4th, I think on a tight track the Abarth would be just as quick as the Clio but the Clio felt more stable at higher speeds than the...

yeh i needed to nip into the scum town so parked up in a safe place lol

lol on the abarth owners club there is a massive thing about the exhaust, it builds up back pressure until 3k then lets it all out so it sounds good at 3k 'apprently' but not sure wether to believe that or not

i wont be de-stickering it, looks abit crap without them and because im a show off cnut

picture of monza (not too keen on the 4 exit pipes but there are rumours that they are releasing it with twin exit) you can also buy a 'group N' monza that comes with no boxes! its abit loud though. video of it sounds abit deisely when its not under pressure

Re: new car FIAT Abarth 500 well im looking at getting hold of some SS wheels at the moment and also maybe getting the monza exhaust from abarth themselves (4 pipes) and yeh ive got a feeling that i wont be changing it, i drove it all today for about 45 miles without putting my foot down once...

1 'play' with an a5 who sat on my arse at the traffic lights. sofaboy in passenger seat and no i wont be doing a story on it lol

absolutly love the car and the bluetooth voice recognition is awesome. thanks for the replies heres a few pictures i have taken. thanks lynden

Lol this is true but with the Abarth there is always thing like exhaust and remaps that are readily available from the dealers, and I was told last week by the Manchester dealers that from next month you can buy Koni coilovers from the dealers and keep your warranty! Win

Looks smart that does

yeh but are dealer fit and can be orderd at any time for about 900 I think

Thanks mate

That's in the saebelts but in the normal Abarth ones they would be full leather

Doing some proper photos of it tonight so will be a big update tonight

Yeh it's so much fun to drive, still to take it out for a proper spin, so peoples advice is let it warm up then drive it like normal? Not run it in and keep to the 5k limit for the first 1000 miles? Lynden

Thanks mate and I have edited it for accuracy ;)

Yeh, new car smell is amazing

Thanks mate, how u finding the gp?

And about not having leather: The car I did the test drive in had leather and I found myself sliding about on the seat this is probably due to the fact I'm slightly overweight and very tall.

Well I specced the 10 spokes (I have a picture with it on them) and it looked gash so got them swapped to petal 5 spokes, and I'm after a set of the esseesse wheels. And I actually love it. Set off to work an hour early and had abit of a go Dow some country lanes and it's great, feels spot on...
