oldest AGP?
« on: December 27, 2011, 06:36:40 PM »
there's an 08 reg AGP appeared at the Renault dealer in doncaster. they reckon it was first registerd in June 08. our figures in the registration thread don't start til july 08.

its one of the original road test cars, in fact the exact one that made me go "wow, i want that"

should i add it to my collection, not got a phase one car yet ;D

With stickers and enthusiastic driving I am sure it can be 9.5k revs.

Maybe, maybe not.  Depends entirely on your driving and that TLC you give to your baby. Lloyd, what's the colour?  The Evo has a Punto sign all over it's @rse, the original doesn't.  The original AGP is just an Abarth and that is what I like about it.  Together with the scratchy exhaust note I am hearing from Scorpi after 3.25 years.  I bet his exhaust has a hole somewhere and the voice is as awesone as his revs.

put an SS back box on scorpi :thumb:

RO08VAH first appears as a base spec white AGP, the cheepest one on the list. then it gets a white wheel SS kit and grows red stripes and mirrors

go to the top of this page, click cars, AGP, gallery, all will be revealed :thumb:
