RB4 A500
« on: May 27, 2011, 06:53:49 PM »
Picked up the car yesterday afternoon, clocked around 280miles so far. I'm loving it!

Alot of people seem to not like blue&me but thats one of the pros of the car i think. I love it, aswell as the power and speed and handling and looks and pretty much everything about it! Im 19 coming from a 1.2 fiesta so this abarth feels something special!

Hopefully have some photos by the end of the weekend, after its had a bath.

Got some photos this morning. I spend ages washing and waxing on saturday, then it rained and i took it out for a spin and then it was dirty again. So the car isnt as shiny as it should be! :thumbd: Any way here it is...

Yeah i think it does, i was going to put more stickers on but i like it how it is, so didnt bother. I put the italian flag ones on the other day and i like them, theyre subtle.  :thumb:

Nice :thumb: stripes look great and a nice change from the normal stuff

Enjoy it but watch that extra power coming from a slightly slower car, good luck to ya - wish my second car had been such a nice step up lol I went from a Mk1 Fiesta to a Nova...
