Hello all, joined up and after many attempts to sign up eventually got in! more difficult to sign up here than to give birth!!
anyway, i am thinking of getting a 500 Abarth in the not too distant future due to there little 1.4 Turbo, (i have a Renault Twingo GT (1.2 Turbo)) so very similar, but i chose the abarth over say the Clio 197 F1 because well the Clio doesn't make 197bhp no where near.. only 180-185 and nearly 200kg heavier than the fiat, and i like flash in your face cars lol. anyway when i get an A500 i'm going straight to GTT to get it to 195 bhp then i will be happy.

but first i've got to source a car, so anyone selling an A500 for less than 10k let me know there are a few for sale, but i have to sell/p/x my Twingo first. anyone interested??

cheers jords.

Careful 

Haha, they are though small low capacity turbocharged hatchbacks, twingo is 100kg lighter but abarth has 35 more bhp, (well mine had only 5 bhp less than the abarth)

Ello  

Just don't call them fiat's  

*facepalm* jeezz its a fiat ffs. its only a name.

why is everyone on a knife edge... oh next my grammer and spelling will be picked at.

Welcome   

When you get a abarth pay special attention to the make collum on the v5.

Tbh as much as i take the micky out of the a500s they are great cars if u call it a fiat or not. We do have a few ex fiat 500 owners and for some reason they call them abarths

So would you call a Merc kompressor AMG an AMG not a mercedes-benz many other examples, anyway its not relevent.

so where to find the best deals on abarth 500's and good dealers with good P/x value's? i can afford upto £6,000 ontop of my Twingo (p/x value of £5500)

Think Alpina not AMG and you're closer to the way it works 

There is a list of dealers in the dealers section, happy hunting 

haha, yes ok but any normal person would call it a BMW.

yea theres a few dealers round my way that seem good, ie Vospers Plymouth and Wessex in Bristol, i've sent them P/x value requests but they don't have any abarths in my budget, only ones in PH are.

Welcome
