A 3 year old Abarth 595,but not the 180bhp boy racer version. It’s a fantastic little car. The Coupe has failed the MOT with some welding needed on the rear sills but when all is sorted I will most likely try to sell it but am in no rush. The smaller car will also free up a bit more space in the garage which I could do with. Will still be able to attend the Departure Lounge in future in the Abarth but sadly not until next year now.

Worried about the harsh ride though but funnily enough found out that may Abarth owners are now replacing the stock rears with coupe bump stops which offer better suspension travel and makes it a much pleasanter owner experience. This could tip it for me in the future
