Lol the advice from the topgear plonkers is

"Our advice? Get a standard Abarth 500 esseesse (£16k) and buy a Ferrari hat."

I have driven these cars alot with my work and must say they give you major grinfactor, i also find them nicer to drive than the punto Arbarth... great choice of exhaust they do sound nice with that exhaust on.

We have a customer who has one of these and sent the car to Germany for 2 months to have the engine played with and its running just short of 300bhp ...he gets great pleasure in playing with Porche 911's

Have fun and enjoy the car

Gorgeous porjuss!

Love the Essesse.

For some reason the white ones look reeeeeeally good when they are filthy, which I don't understand.

Do you get many more ponies with an induction kit?

Nice numberplate too. Did that come with the car?

thank you ...induction kit only a few bhp (if that) but it will have a cool air charge rather than taking the air from around engine...so it will make boost safer.

numberplate was an extra...really pleased with it...and was quite cheap compared to the prices i have seen.

Magnetti Marelli











Sounds lovely....more free revving....a few extra horses....lots of burble, pops and bangs mmmmmmmm

[bcjames]

Awesome! Absolutely love these cars! If I didn't have a mini, I'd have one of these as a daily I think. Small cars are awesome
