    Sounds like the car that has arrived looks like this rather than what you were told which is the second picture.

    As long as you walk away happy that's the most important thing. Sounds like the dealer wants the same for you.  :thumb:

    You'll probably find that you've changed the wheels on another customer's car and your's is hidden round the back with the other new cars  ;D

    Something to look forward to and a great start to your weekend. Enjoy it mate.

    Hi, welcome along. Sounds like a great combo either way tbh. What colour are your callipers? Looks awesome when the stripes match them.

    I love the Abarth in grey, looks mean :D

    In which case you can go for any colour and get the accenting wing mirrors /wheel caps. Depends what you want to be honest. Black will be subtle, whereas red will shout. I personally went for the shouty option to match the Monza's presence :) its up to your style preference :)

    Hello everyone, just wanted to say ciao and introduce myself!

    I ordered a 595 Competizione from Abarth 3 months ago and to cut a very long story short, the car is still somewhere in production so I decided to purchase the 695 Biposto that they had in the showroom!

    That was one of those sod it moments! I shall upload some pictures once I've managed to reduce them in 512kb!

    Hi

    I wonder if the dealer is trying to get rid of a stock car that is a close match.

    In my opinion unless 100% happy don't accept otherwise 6months later it will niggle at you.
