    Love it!  :thumb:

    I like the white wheels on grey. Think white would be my choice if I got the SS kit. How you finding the ride?

    Firm but not uncomfortable.

    I've got a really bad back at the moment and the 250 mile ride home was fine. I'm not too keen on the high seating position though. I presume its a hang over from the standard 500.

    Really Joe; white wheels on black? Would definitely be interesting to see if that worked.

    Lovely car Hozepipe; pleased you're happy with it. Looks like FW may be one of the rare choices given the spat of grey and LE flat white cars :whistle:

    Yep, the titanium ones looks bob on, but with white stripes and red leather and black paint it could look inconsistent. I've fiddled with the configurator and it looks smart, although I much prefer the 10 spokes that I've ordered. Need to see what the insurance is like first before I make my mind up on the SS kit, plus I may prfer the standard ride...

    Ah, white stripes would provide the matching key. Yep, that would work I feel. :thumb:

    I had a quick look under the dust cover of David Yu's wife's FW car when I picked up mine on Saturday. It looked very special; however, I still prefer the grey as it's part of Abarth's rich heritage and that appeals to me.

    Everyone to their own or there wouldn't be a colour choice and life would be boring :thumb:
    Really glad you're enjoying the car Hozepipe :thumb:
