• Someone mentioned Abarth a few posts up.

    Reminded me that I was thinking about getting a Fiat 500 Abarth as a fun machine.

    Done the modded 400 BHP Impreza stuff in the past but was thinking of something smallish and sprightly from the factory. There's a 500 Tourismo up the road with 37,000 on the clock which looks smart in Bright red.

    Are 500 Arbath frail and monetpits like the Lotus' of old.?

  • I have a 595 Comp and before that a regular 500. Both have been very reliable, costs have only been consumables really. The friendly local Italian car specialist told me that the engines are very strong. Parts are generally cheap especially when common with standard Fiats. Door handles fall off and older wire harnesses to the tailgate get chewed up. As you may have seen up thread, security is absent so you may choose to purchase more.
