Last weekend after spending most of the day test driving my local dealers demo Abarth (which they very kindly chucked me the keys and sent me off to play) i ended up doing a deal on this 1owner car as a new one was a bit too much for me at this moment in time.

 

 

I can honestly say this is loads more fun to drive than my fabia vrs and the amount of attention it gets is unreal considering its just a small grey shopping trolley   

Lovely mate, did you chop the Fabia in for it?

lovely car mate, check out the build thread for swmbo's abarth in here

Not traded anything against it just gave £100 deposit and drove it away lol. I have a potential buyer lined up for my golf but he can't collect till next month

very nice, was looking at these a few days ago as a potential Citigo replacement 

you wouldn't be dissapointed, we love our abarth

Looks stunning, love that. Fantastic fun cars, just a shame the driving position is set so crazily high. Still miss my old one sometimes :-)

Cheers tom. I certainly agree with you on the driving position if only it was a couple of inch lower it would be loads better, other than that it's a great little car and puts a big smile on my face just like my old cooper-s did.

Lovely car and nice seats , daughters had two although only sport not a arbarth but fun to drive like an an original mini , she wants an Abarth next depending on insurance as 600% more in central Leeds where she lives

Cheers Alan the seats certainly do a great job of holding you in place when chucking it round twist roads

Very nice looking Motor. One thing I really do like with Fiats is they put the gear lever in the correct position.
