What's the mileage expected to be by the time I get it?


In the very low teens. My A500c was delivered with 17 miles on the clock.

Stop it Hozepipe, you're a bad man :bat:
For those that don't know, Abarths are now delivered to Portbury in "delivery mode" which prevents them from going over 2500 rpm.

Looking at the area on google maps, there are huge storage areas or 'car parks' near the port.  They appear to be driven off the boat then parked and later put on a transporter presumably.

When it gets over here I suspect they will just drive it from the docks to the franchise so that will add another 5 miles.
Collected 4Nov11 with just 6 miles on the clock.
